  here we go, what's the definition of minimal...
  
 
 A package installer and a commandline to run it from.

true, it's like debian. Install the minimum and apt-get what u want.
So install the minimum and urpmi what I want instead of having to deal
by hand with the package I may want to add. For example I do a minimal
install and after I urpmi apache and all apache related stuffs ( php
support and others modules ) just to do a an apache server on a crappy
586 box, etc ...

[will@bastard dir_test]$ rpm -q --requires urpmi
eject  
webfetch  
perl-DateManip = 5.40
perl-gettext  
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) = 3.0.3-1
rpmtools = 4.0
/bin/sh  
/bin/sh  
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) = 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) = 3.0.4-1
bash  
perl-base

[will@bastard dir_test]$ urpmf --size curl 
libcurl2:size:277703
curl:size:143842
libcurl2-devel:size:315458

[will@bastard dir_test]$ urpmf --size wget
gwget:size:119251
wget:size:956914

curl is much smaller than wget so curl should be installed by default.

Not quite true. It pulls such things like XFree86-libs (and more). To
support such minimal installs we need to split urpmi into urpmi-base,
urpmi-text, urpmi-x. Or possibly two urpmi-text and urpmi-gui.

Here is result of basys install + snf-en with all dependencies. A couple
of things were extra selected (rsync I guess and may be kernel-secure):

bor@cooker% rpm -r /wrk -qa | wc -l
186

not as minimal as I would like to see it.

there's already urpmi and gurpmi.

AFAIK urpmi does not require XFree86-libs

We need a replacement for perl-DateManip which do not require perl (but only
perl-base), currently we have to increase perl to make perl-DateManip require
conly perl-base.

webfetch is choice between curl and wget, perl-DateManip is only needed in curl
case (because curl lacks timestamp conditional upload with ftp, simulated with
urpmi sync method to curl).

After that, urpmi may be considered to somewhat more minimal that it is currently.

where ? look at requires : only rpm, perl an bash stuff. Maybe you mix
urpmi and gurpmi/rpmdrake

I remember a minimum install of debian potatoe is about 90Mo for a very 
basic networked workstation (only terminal , no X stuff) with a ssh server.

Currently wiht the mdk installer , the minimum I have found is about 
150-170Mo.

This is not big , but I think with a little work, mdk can do 100-120Mo.

Which version do you tried (Cooker or anything else ?), if you do not select any
group and select basesystem only, you will get less than 100 Mb.

mdk8.1 , two or three months ago

very basic system + network + ssh server  - 170Mo

perhaps , as you say, cooker can do less than 100MB. I will try next 
week in a vmware image.

Actually it was snf-en that pulled in XFree86.

It depends. For a mission critical system (like firewall) you may not
want to install anything except what is absolutely needed. 1.622 already
installs way too much - why do I need imwheel on a system where I
*never* install X?

And no, I have not asked for that :-) I asked to include what is
absolutely needed.
