As suggested in other posts, deleting .pyo and .pyc files gets me down to
6MB. Static libraries (.a files) in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib still have
mismatching MD5 sums even though no source code change warrants this. Can
I do anything about that?
Perhaps they have an embedded timestamp or version number?
This seems to be the case:
# strings DIR1/usr/lib/libfetch.a > tmp1
# strings DIR2/usr/lib/libfetch.a > tmp2
# diff tmp1 tmp2

The changing number is the modification date of the .o file (I think).
Are static libraries even needed anymore?
Are you going to be compiling anything?
I'm compiling ports, but I could delete the files afterwards. It would
be nice to be able to compile stuff in the images in the future, though.
I think I'll just leave the files there for the time being. It's a size
reduction of less than 1 MB.
