Let's ignore all the other stuff and focus on how to solve it.

I'm willing to assist when there are too big dependency chains. But, I
don't get why in a minimal install it installs &quot;Suggests:&quot;? I can
understand that it takes space on the DVD. But in a minimal install it
should ignore the Suggests, no?


I think we should have something which tracks these things
automatically.

Meaning:
- a way to see the dependency chains over time
  (e.g. something which logs it per day)
- a way to see the size of various &quot;targets&quot; over time
  (e.g. KDE, GNOME, XFCE, minimal)
- an email when the size changes compared to previous day
  (e.g. new dependency, or maybe 100MB of documentation in some package)
