I must admit I carefully go through the package lists on every install - but I also build my own install isos and the one thing that I have never fathomed out is how to alter the comps list so that the default package manifest is altered to my own taste - I can certainly add available packages to the install and select them but it would be oh so nice to be able to build an install iso (mainly for installing after lots of new updates are in some weeks or months after a release) that has my choice of default packages. If anyone can point me to a guide on this specific issue I would appreciate it.
