Great idea, I would also love to see a clear out of the packages
that
aren't core/part of particular categories. MTAs in minimal would be
one that comes to mind but there's lots of other examples.
Yeah, I'd like to clean this up. The sad thing is that even if I define
the minimal group as:
kernel
dracut
util-linux
systemd
systemd-units
initscripts
yum
selinux-policy-targeted
policycoreutils
it merely drops it from 524MB/186 packages to 503MB/152 packages. I could
make it smaller by dropping yum/rpm and dependencies, but I can't in good
conscience ship an *installation target* minimal install that doesn't allow
you to get updates or add-in packages.
