But you don't need all of them in world, many are only installed as dependencies of other packages. I have most of KDE installed here, yet only 67 kde-base packages in world. You could reduce that sill further by using more than the two meta packages I currently have. -- Neil Bothwick Q: Why do PCs - even modern ones - have reset buttons on the front?
