Many packages that are not directly related to X need things from
xbase77 (freetype, fontconfig are common).
What about comp77.tgz?
Not very likely to be needed.
Are my assumptions correct? Is there anything else to be aware of when
skipping sets?
If you use sysupgrade, it will download all sets. It will also try to
install them unless you use "sysupgrade -n" and remove the relevant
files from /home/_sysupgrade.
Not talking about game77 - I doubt anything depends on that :)
Probably not, but it is pretty small.
There is something to be said for installing things which you don't need
(or creating a dummy file) that you can later remove when you _really_
need a bit more space...
Thanks Stuart for answering my question, though, what do you mean by
"creating dummy files that you can later remove"? Or is the sentence not
meant to be read that way :)
