I asked why you were do determined to make the install less useful by default. Your reply was something like "I'm not very determined", which doesn't answer my question at all. You want us to remove groff from the standard install, even though you're going to install it yourself. That sure sounds to me like you find groff (probably actually man-db) to be useful (otherwise, why would you be installing it), but you want to not have it installed by default, thus making the default install less useful. I see the usefulness of the minimal install, but this I think this is getting ridiculous. Ubuntu Server is -- after all -- supposed to be for human beings, not for embedded systems. > There seems to be a lot of praise for the "bare install" option in the > installer, and no one has said anything against it. Well, you seem to think that it's not bare enough? -- Soren Hansen | Virtualisation specialist | Ubuntu Server Team Canonical Ltd. | http://www.ubuntu.com/
