Hi All,
<rant> Has anyone else here unexpectedly stumbled upon texlive's phenomenally voluminous installed packages list and been stunned by it's footprint? Over 900 -doc packages, alone?! I don't recall explicitly selecting to install it. IMHO, it should have it's own 'package group' or 'pattern' instead of being pulled in with anything else. And how about the package names seemingly being seeded with odd selections designed to bork obvious pattern matching, hence frustrating rapid, bulk removal of texlive from the system? ... -doc-doc, -bin-bin, -font-fonts and there are others. Really? >:-( </rant> rpm -qa *texlive* |wc -l 14
Interesting. vankan@linux-wo23:~> rpm -qa *texlive* | wc -l 1723 But then I am able to write in Korean (not that I need to) and have a hyphenation dictionary in spanglish (not that I need one). So yes, Carl, same here, but I live with it. :) (And I have a mere 637 doc packages) -- Jos van Kan registered Linux user #152704 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
