What do you mean here? Remove dependencies that are not actually required? In that case I am all for it but don't actually know what to discuss about that. Remove all dependencies? I guess this is not what you mean because this does not really make sense. Anything else? > * /dev/hd removal: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/9/285 I'd like to see that. It's just that you need a reliable update path from old installations but I guess you thought about that. > * Building distribution for i386/x86-64 with -mtune=generic > > Proposal: Build distribution with these flags. I don't have benchmark numbers for this but if it is faster and does not generally break stuff then this does make sense.
