= Summary =

Live images oversized due to recent inclusion of m17n-* and scim-*: 
- - - - -
* The current inclusion of input-methods group in fedora-live-base.ks breaks 
the size of the KDE live images. 
* The english-only KDE live images don't have much need for these packages. 
* As a short term solution scim-python-pinyin will be replaced by the smaller 
scim-pinyin on the live images. 
* We should also talk to the Fedora I18N Group about size constraints. 
* Another big but mostly unneeded package is solar-backgrounds (KDE does not 
support the different times of day). 
* We'll suggest splitting solar-backgrounds into a *-common subpackage with 
shared artwork which will be required by solar-kde then. 
* Also the solar-backgrounds dependency should be moved from libgnome to a 
package higher up in the GNOME stack (which isn't included on the KDE spin). 

TTY mods to kdmrc (switch X to tty1 per faster startup): 
- - - - -
* RexDieter has tested some modifications of kdmrc to use tty1 for KDM (like 
GDM is doing). 
* This change will be included in the next release of kde-setting
