Thanks, I wasn't aware of this method :p
Does it appears somewhere in the kadischi documentation? If not I think it
would be a good idea to do so (It's difficult put some things in 700MB
whithout this).
It's not really worth documenting until someone does the work to get it
supported...
To be sure, if I'm not wrong, to enable %_install_langs macro
some lines
should be uncommented from the file upgrade.py. And the %doc macro is enabled
adding --excludedocs option to the %package section in the ks file. Is it
this way?
Not upgrade.py, somewhere more generic (upgrade.py only gets used on
upgrades). And --excludedocs for %packages will work, although it's
probably advantageous to look into other ways of passing that as I
expect a lot of live CDs to be created without using kickstart
