ok, i was a bit wrong:

i have a local dracut version overridden with urpmi-proxy so as not to 
required but suggest plymouth


testing with which packages would become requested with rpmsrate...

in a chroot, this becomes: 246 packages/299MB
but, with suggests, this becomes 337 packages/385MB

however, in an install i have 371 packages

but the / contains 731MB

so, where do all these extra packages come from?

these are the different packages between installing with suggests, or chrooted 
rpmsrate expansion with suggests...

acpi
acpid
bc
coreutils-doc
cpufreq
dhcp-client
dhcp-common
dmraid
dmraid-events
gpg-pubkey
hdparm
hexedit
ipset
iptables
kpartx
lib64dmraid1
lib64ip4tc0
lib64ip6tc0
lib64iptables7
lib64mnl0
lib64nfnetlink0
locales-en
lsof
mageia-gfxboot-theme
mandi
mandi-ifw
microcode
microcode_ctl
procmail
shorewall
strace
sudo
tree

for one, mageia-gfxboot-theme is here again... it didn't get selected in 
chrooted install from manually checked rpmsrate settings... where does this 
come from?

is there a part in the installer that hardcodes certain packages? clearly 
according to the ddebug.log file, this mageia-gfxboot-theme gets selected 
during the choosePackages step and not later on...

what am i missing here?

does anyone have an idea? i'd like to get to the bottom of this, so a pointer 
in a direction would help me alot...
