Done (inclusive the newly added ibus-*). But the size of the images are
still over 700 megs:

i686:   719 megs
x86_64: 724 megs

I'm still against a DVD-only version for the known reasons: cd drives
are more common than dvd drives and the  download size of the images.
And also: If we produce a dvd version we are likely be tempted to
include more packages than needed - just to fill the dvd.
