[opensuse] What file indexers &c to kill, remove on 12.1?
Turns out I must upgrade to 12,1 after all. I want to avoid killing a 3rd disk, though, so I won't use encrypted swap oR filesystems. I am also not installing disk indexers and want to ensure that any that get installed are killed off with great prejudice, as well as any other such resource hogs. I found packagekit installed despite being tagged "taboo" and uninstalled it. I see it's a "large" python set of apps. a major resource hog. "Killer apps" in python really can kill. Is there anything else I should look for that could be bad news? some indexer or other that may cause problems for small systems? thanks, jd -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

It is not packagekit what you have to remove, because removing it takes a lot of things out via dependencies that you need. You need to remove the frontends, like apper. Without that, it's dead in the water. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

first thing checked was what depends on packageklt. Found little that was and nothing that was critical or needed. so far there are no problems. apper was not installed. jd -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

The only thing you need to have installed is libpackagekit-glib2 for gnome-settings-daemon. gnome-color-manager claims to need PackageKit, but that's not really the case, so breaking that is no problem.
