Here's a thought:

1304 random packages will install 724 MB of data in /usr/share/doc

I'm sure there is /something/ to gain here. If every package on average
installs ~0.5 MB of docs... Would it worth figuring out what docs should
be on the LiveCD in the first place? I guess removing everything RPM
calls docs is too much, as this will include man-pages as well.

Any thoughts?

  
      

I think it is a bad idea, because many people uses the Live CD's to
install to their systems, and then they end up with a system
without doc files, with no easy way to get the docs back on the systems.

    

That's not true as anaconda needs the RPMs to install to a system,
right? Last time I checked a LiveCD could not be installed "offline"
because of this.
