Inspired by recent fedora-devel list discussion, here's a patch to
save some space from images by excluding obsoleted packages.
Arguably those packages should just die and not hang around in the
repos, but these undead packages seem fairly persistent...
This is what I see with F18 install DVD:
Before patch:
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4687134720 Nov 12 21:10
Fedora-18-x86_64-DVD.iso
With the patch:
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4550819840 Nov 12 21:01
Fedora-18-x86_64-DVD.iso
The idea of the patch makes sense, but I'm surprised that what you
list below really amounts to 130MB off the DVD, given that the
biggest package is grub's 6MB. There could be dependencies that
fall off, but that many?
Sorry, should've obviously included this info to start with... Here's

I didn't actually look at the package sizes here but imagining these
amounting to > 100M is hard. To add to the insult, AFAICS the thing
dragging in all this texlive font stuff is dvipdfmx, a package which
is not only obsoleted but also has broken dependencies:
the texlive bits should all now be blocked. what i would rather is a
report of obsoleted things that we could then dig into and take propper
action to clean up rather than blindly removing things.
Well, the packages excluded due to direct obsoletion are reported by the
patch, the rest of the difference is dependencies of those obsoleted
packages. Pungi doesn't generally report what got left out, only what
got pulled in and why... While recursively reporting everything left out
due to obsoletion would be possible, it doesn't seem worth the trouble
to me.
