One kernel, yes, but for the other we could have alternatives. dietlibc is sort of an alternative of the libc and whenever/if there is a X substitute it could be fine to have it packaged. Hopefully with initng we'll have soon 2 init systems... Oh, even a alternate kernel could be doable - but not in the installer, of course. Maybe one day there will be a hurd in extras ;-) It's not even clear to me what piece of core couldn't be provided in extras, except for very basic config files. Even basic unix commands could come from a alternate implementation (like busybox) with other names, of course. Maybe rpm? It will come a long way until it is possible to have a running system installed from fedora core but without any component of fedora core used, but it could be sortof funny. Interesting dream, isn't it ;-) -- Pat -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
