big -1 on irssi. if you want to irc, you have networking, and you can `pacman 
-S<whichever client you want>`.

Then in the same situation we have already elinks, lftp, curl, nmap, and 
others...

smartmontools.. if you think we have enough space to install these kinds of "misc 
sysadmin" packages, then fine for me.
Health of disk is important.

the others sound like they have a valid reason to be on there.
OK, adding linux-atm, mtool, and smartmontools.
Dieter
