This is the discussion thread for what packages we might drop in the next distribution of FreeDOS. See the other "parent" discussion thread and the "Thinking about FreeDOS 2.0" thread for context.
These are the Development (devel) packages we included in FreeDOS 1.3. This list is pulled from the first column of the FreeDOS 1.3 package report, linked from the "Downloads" page on the website. Refer to the full report if you need more details. For example, most of these are only on the Bonus CD. Development tools are big, but an important part of a developed-facing distribution. But do we need all of these in the next distribution? Which ones are not really used? bcc ( 1174.5 KiB ) bwbasic ( 740.4 KiB ) cpp2ccmt ( 21.7 KiB ) djgpp_bn ( 5.1 MiB ) djgpp_bs ( 415.3 KiB ) djgpp_db ( 4.8 MiB ) djgpp_fq ( 667 KiB ) djgpp_fx ( 191.9 KiB ) djgpp_gc ( 11.7 MiB ) djgpp_gp ( 8.6 MiB ) djgpp_mk ( 270.8 KiB ) djgpp_ob ( 10.9 MiB ) djgpp_rh ( 6 MiB ) djgpp_tx ( 1066.9 KiB ) djgpp ( 1512.6 KiB ) dojs ( 40.8 MiB ) euphoria ( 3.3 MiB ) fasm ( 471.3 KiB ) fbc_help ( 3.1 MiB ) fbc ( 17.4 MiB ) fpc ( 33.8 MiB ) i16budoc ( 778.7 KiB ) i16butil ( 10.3 MiB ) i16elklc ( 2.8 MiB ) i16gcc ( 9.2 MiB ) i16gcdoc ( 1631.9 KiB ) i16lbi86 ( 488.7 KiB ) i16newli ( 30.1 MiB ) i16nlelk ( 46.6 KiB ) i16src ( 1158.7 KiB ) insight ( 252 KiB ) jwasm ( 1780.8 KiB ) kittenc ( 67.5 KiB ) lua ( 865.6 KiB ) msa ( 67.3 KiB ) nasm ( 4 MiB ) perl ( 26.3 MiB ) regina ( 4.3 MiB ) runtime ( 29.5 KiB ) suppls ( 1108.9 KiB ) tinyasm ( 178.4 KiB ) upx ( 2.4 MiB ) watcomc ( 30.3 MiB ) watcomf ( 22.9 MiB ) _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
