I have a system with extremely limited mass storage. So I went hunting for anything I might remove to save disk space. Anyway, I thought to myself, "Self, firstboot doesn't do anything useful anymore; let's remove it!"
But yum tells me that removing firstboot will take system-config-keyboard with it. Not that I necessarily need system-config-keyboard, but I'm perplexed -- I would have thought that the dependency was the other way around.
Does anybody understand why this odd dependency?
By the way, the system is a EeePC 900A with 4GB of flash for an internal "disk." And I have to say, I'm extremely pleased, overall. Everything just works, even the wireless. And I don't even have any complaints about NetworkManager, if that's possible. I haven't had to fool with a single config file yet.
