Great email, but I believe you have an option to NOT install portions of
software when installing storm. If memory serves me, there's a series
of check boxes used to intall all items associated with, for example,
GAMES and to allow you to choose only those packages you wish to
install. As a sysadmin, I've hacked a few scripts that rpm or dpkg or
alien or whatever to uninstall packages that I already know I don't
want, and I'm sure that I have done nothing unique.
Distros shouldn't scale down their offerings because, while these
offerings are not the only difference, they are a part of what makes
that distro unique.
Just my two cents worth...thanks for the open ports.
