--- Begin Message ---Package: texlive Version: 2007-13 When installing texlive or anything that depends on it (such as prosper), a huge amount of documentation and language specific things are installed. It would be nice to not have to do this -- I have a laptop with a 4GB hard drive and texlive takes up about 700 MB this way. I suggest that package texlive-latex-recommended is only just that -- recommended; not required. :) Florian

Wrong. You either installed one of the transitional tetex-* packages depending on a huge amount of texlive packages (necessary evil to cover all files from former tetex packages), or you are installing recommended packages. Most texlive packages split off the doc files into -doc packages which are only recommended, socalling aptitude with --without-recommended etc will NOT install those files. Since we in fact have to distribute the doc files with the style files but we agreed with the authors that recommending them is ok, this will and cannot be changed. Closing this bug. > I suggest that package texlive-latex-recommended is only just that -- > recommended; not required. :) Of course, if you want to write plain TeX code without any goodies, definitely.
