On my own first-time build, I seem to have used about 8GB (x86_64) with 677 MiB installed - still need to fine-tune some of the options, and to decide if I really want the languages I chose, but I've managed to overcome my dislike of enormous packages.
Shame it can't open .gnumeric and .abw files, and .xlsx files (saved by gnumeric) crash it, but if I save as .xls and .doc in gnumeric and abiword then it can open them. I think I'll be absent from the lists for a few days - need to play with calc and writer before deciding if these are the way for me to go :-) So far, writer looks mostly good (the dead keys and my AltGr keys from .Xmodmap all seem to work fine - abiword always ignored some of the less-common dead key accented letters). Good thing I upgraded my desktop boxes this year, building this on my ancient single processor x86_64 with one processor would take forever ;) Cheers. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
