My minimal install did take about 500MB to install from whatever anaconda
gave me, and I've managed to trim about 120MB from that. However, I chose
only English installed during Anaconda, and _none_ of the 120MB I have
removed came from deleting languages.
Can you show me where other languages might be hiding, such that I can show
a user how to install that one language they want, then nuke all others?
(This of course should work for any language, not just English, or I
flat-out refuse to do it.)
Thanks,
