&gt;<i> Hi there

I did a fast-n-dirty check:


urpmq -d basesystem &gt; pkg.lst
(clean pkg.lst from options like *|*|*)
wc -l pkg.lst
rpm -q --qf &quot;%{SIZE} %{NAME}\n&quot; $(cat pkg.lst) | sort -rn | head -n 20

mageia-alpha2:

mandriva-cooker:

Big differences: perl+nss+gnome-icon-theme = 60Mb.
It looks strange that nothing is pulling perl in cooker, is it a bug ?

The rest is a big cherry-picking work...

Perhaps the problem is not basesystem itself.
I noticed that the installer in alpha2 installs a lot of things (many
kde things, I seem to remember) even before asking about what desktop
env the user wants.
Perhaps the problem is in the installer...

Anyways, a x86-64 mageia system (without texlive ;) ) with some added programs
I needed after the install, and after deleting all kde|qt|plasma is now at:

paradise:~/bs# df
Filesystem    Type    Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1     ext4     39G  3.2G   34G   9% /
/dev/sda2    btrfs    108G   56K  106G   1% /scratch/local

Texlive adds like another 1.5Gb to the payload.

Just a quick check.
