It has absolutely minimal dependencies. Would it make sense to give this a different name like Dima's suggestion of sagemath-core or something else like sagemath-base, sagemath-minimal etc? I think all of these options are much less expressive than the current choice. Anything named *-minimal* could describe pretty much any arbitrary choice. (It's "minimal" for *what*?) Likewise *-core* could mean pretty much anything. There are many other things that are arguably the "core" of Sage. And *sagemath-categories* is definitely not the *-base*; below it in the dependency graph there is sagemath-objects (an even smaller subset). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
