</I>
Eg, if systemd-analyze would be split from systemd into an utils sub-package,
we wouldn't require python in minimal system.

Not requiring wireless-tools would also spare us comgt, usb_modeswitch &amp; tcl
from minimal basesystem .

wireless-tools shouldn't be suggested since drakx-net installs it when needed

prcsys should be a suggest now that we're moving towards systemd

Likewise due to widespread suggests among perl modules, we bring quite
a lot of perl modules:
urpmi -&gt; perl-Hal-Cdroms -&gt; Net-DBus -&gt; XML-Twig -&gt; XML-Parser -&gt; LWP
-&gt; perl-libwww-perl -&gt; HTTP::Negotiate -&gt; HTTP::Negotiate -&gt;
HTTP::Message

does util-linux needs diffutils?

crda &amp; iw could maybe be installed if needed by drakx-net?
