Public bug reported:
The footprint for Ubuntu installation has increased greatly. Ubiquity
should utilize the screen where it says
[HAS AT LEAST 4.5 GB available drive space]
to make that size changeable by removing optional packages making it
possible to install Ubuntu on smaller drives.
Some ideas of "optional" packages. Some are quite large and I find that not
everyone uses these:
Libre Office
Thunderbird
Ubuntu-one
Gwibber
Empathy
Rhytmbox/Banshee
Gnome Games
Totem
Shotwell
