We'd like to discuss the following topics tomorrow. Please send your comments and suggestions as usual so that I can represent them. thanks, Andrea * Smaller systems - what can be done? Goal: A system with 128 MB of space. Challenges are especially: * Languages and localization * documentation - > some packages have documentation split up already * theming -> some packages will be split up so that only one theme is in a package. For languages we discussed previously already the following and will implement this now: The idea is to add to spec file of packages a new rpm macro so that subpackages are created and then related subpackages are repacked for each language in our build system. This way we would get e.g. basesystem-$lang and gnome-$lang packages and those can then be installed. * Shared library policy (posted some time ago on opensuse-packaging, is now in the wiki) * dbus restart Making dbus a special reboot case like the kernel when updating (like other distros - dbus is really not supposed to be restarted). -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
