Well, I know what I think the base system encompasses. Overall, I don't think it'll be too difficult to look at a package and say "base or not?".
understand, but i *guess* 'base' might be defined somewhat differently depending on the machine owner and his/her needs...like the base system interesting to a SysAdmin at (say) Rackspace is probably different from the base system attracting a Hollywood digital effects artist and both of those different from a nettop user, or your average Linux kernel hacker... etc..
Whatever applications those people need, they would not be part of the base, imo. Example base components I can think of: syslog, sysinit, cron, zypper, apparmor, mail, X, KDE, shells, probably quite a few more. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (22.4°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
