><i> This is not a new problem, but I've never seen it mentioned. Typically
</I>><i> I test install to real partitions 4800MiB in size. This limited space
</I>><i> is adequate for what I do with a test installation, but requires I
</I>><i> carefully choose what gets installed or not. Devel, "server",
</I>><i> multimedia, games, office apps and Java I always exclude for space
</I>><i> reasons. I don't use them often enough to be able to recognize if
</I>><i> anything was wrong with them. Even though I select custom instead of
</I>><i> KDE or Gnome, and on next screen deselect everything that won't cause
</I>><i> urpmi not to install, several things are preselected that make no
</I>><i> sense for a minimal install, such as every (4 total?) X DE. When I try
</I>><i> to deselect any of several of these preselections, it acts like an
</I>><i> initial selection of a large task instead of a deselection. It takes a
</I>><i> second try to actually deselect. In several cases, the attempt to
</I>><i> deselect results in a select that requires more space than is
</I>><i> "available". Before I can deselect in those cases, I must find smaller
</I>><i> selections to deselect and free up space before it will let me select
</I>><i> what I'm actually trying to deselect. Then I must go back to those
</I>><i> indirectly forced deselections to reselect them. When done, I
</I>><i> typically find about 60% or so of the 4800MiB actually gets used by
</I>><i> the time I've configured no-suggests and urpmi'd what I needed but
</I>><i> couldn't select during installation without pulling in the space
</I>><i> wasters. Ultimate goal is usually no frills KDE, with none of file
</I>><i> manager, IM, PIM/Kmail or desktop search. I do 99.97% of my email POP
</I>><i> in SeaMonkey, but not in test installations. All my searching and most
</I>><i> text file editing is done using MC.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> NAICT, it's impossible to install to include urpmi and exclude 100% of
</I>><i> X and its deps.

Is that cauldron ? because there was some improvement since mga2
