Yeah, but it's reasonable for people to expect that scripts using standard
commands which have always worked on Fedora to continue to work on Fedora
unless there's a good reason for them to not. That doesn't mean we need to
carry cruft for ever, but we should error on the side of compatibly in the
absence of a reason. (And I think "saving 120k in non-minimal installs"
doesn't count.)
