Hi, partially agreed... Yet I think we can and should keep several good compilers in the distro. The confusing points of the distro are more that you have to dig through long lists of packets and stuff. It would be nice to have an option like "install everything which works without network connection during/after install, while I go away and have a cup of tea", for example :-)...
Afterwards you can still use the package manager to add more packages from the cdrom or install the networking or usb stuff or remove packages again. Another nice option would be "install a full base system with all the usual DOS stuff and show me the list of all other possible packages, but preselect none for installation, just add the extras which I manually select". Just some ideas. I would have to work out the details if somebody wants to add such options to the installer.
