At least I find such measure points very useful, and would love to hear from more schools what kind of applications they are using. I suggest you add your report to wiki.debian.org and would love it if you could take responsibility for trying to get information from other schools as well. :) I ran 'du -k pool/*/*/*|sort -nr |head -30' on the DVD yesterday, to see on what source packages the space is spent. Noticed lilypond was 5th, thanks to its 99MB package lilypond-doc. This package is now thrown out of the DVD, and we got space for a lot more. Another package spending 53 MB was fglrx-control, the non-free X driver. Decided to drop it too, and thus have made room for 152 MB of packages. This made room for LXDE, Gnome and the language specific packages. I hope more people can have a look using similar methods to come up with ways to get the packages we want on the DVD. The current top 30 look like this: 354684 pool/main/o/openoffice.org 209220 pool/main/o/openclipart 154568 pool/main/k/kde-l10n 115904 pool/main/f/fluid-soundfont 94952 pool/main/k/kdebase-workspace 93448 pool/main/l/linux-2.6 80428 pool/main/o/openjdk-6 73684 pool/main/k/kdeedu 69924 pool/main/g/gcompris 60600 pool/main/s/samba 57844 pool/main/d/debian-installer-netboot-images 55672 pool/main/d/debian-edu-doc 52820 pool/main/n/norwegian 51516 pool/main/q/qt4-x11 50864 pool/main/i/inkscape 48456 pool/main/k/kdeartwork 45720 pool/main/t/tuxpaint-stamps 38172 pool/main/s/stellarium 35328 pool/main/e/evolution 35076 pool/main/g/gcj-4.4 34660 pool/main/s/scribus-ng 34348 pool/main/k/kdebindings 33940 pool/main/k/kde4libs 31876 pool/main/k/kicad 31340 pool/main/c/celestia 29200 pool/main/m/mesa 29136 pool/main/k/kdelibs 29036 pool/main/e/eglibc 28620 pool/main/f/flite 28592 pool/main/g/gimp-help I wonder about the tuxpaint-stamps package, but have not investigated why it is included. Throwing out kicad bwill gain us 31 MB, when that take effect. Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
