Re: Modular Kernel Packaging for Cloud -> glibc-common

FWIW, the existing kernel package installed today (a debug kernel
even) is ~142 MB. 123MB of that is the /lib/modules content. ~6MB of
that is vmlinuz. The remaining 13MB is the initramfs, which is
actually something that composes on the system during install and not
something we can shrink from a packaging standpoint
honestly "glibc-common" would be more useful and less critical
to split into subpackages
* missing a locale and fallback to english leaves the option
install whatever package - i would not miss anything than
"de" and "en" on all machines i maintain - cloud or not
* missing a kernel module and refuse to boot is critical
because of that CC to @devel
