Hello,
The alpha release of the RULE Distribution ANalyzer from the RULE
projectis available online at
http://www.rule-project.org/cgi-bin/dan.cgi
The DAn (which can be ported to other distros) is targeted to whoever
needs to quickly hand-pick Red Hat packages for any reason, from
server administrators to users who need an internet kiosk or MP3 juke
box with the same user-space packages present on their standard
desktop.
Its final version should give complete answers (EVEN ONLINE, OR
WITHOUT FORCING YOU TO INSTALL THAT RH VERSION) to questions like:
How much space will version X of Red Hat need?
How much space will it take if I remove this and that package?
I don't really care about specific packages, programs, and desktop
environments. I just want a box that does {any set of tasks}, and,
for each task (eg email client), guarantees certain functionalities
(eg POP3 support). SAID THIS, WHAT IS THE SMALLEST COMPLETE SET OF
RPM PACKAGES WHICH GIVES THAT, AND WHERE DO I FIND THEM?
More info, and the URL to the source, are displayed by the script
itself.
Thanks in advance for any feedback,
Marco Fioretti
