I think we can keep a section named "base".  Some packages, like the
above, as well as the kernel packages, fit naturally into that section.
We just drop the rule about its connection with the boot-floppies.

libs, admin, or base.

utils, I think.  It's similar to the stuff in util-linux.

Not sure.

Either is fine.  Perhaps we need a perl section.

Definitely utils.
