I've been following this discussion and can't see what the actual problem
is. I've installed a new system since the change and the installation doc's
have been updated appropriately. It still works. If you want extra packages
then add them, this, in my opinion, is what Arch is designed to do. I'm

I am sorry if this is a repeated/dumb question. What exactly does the base
package have? I.e. if i install only base "pacstrap /mnt base", then what
stuff will i get in it?
Knowing this i can decide what stuff i have to install in addition.

I've submitted `base-extras` to the AUR at
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/base-extras/ that contains the
missing packages from `base` if someone REALLY wants it.
I think we should have created a "minimal" group rather than repurposing
the base one. Then as a separate issue to tackle, add "kernel" and "editor"
etc to the base group which would prompt the user to choose, or if
non-interactive install the first listed.

Not old enough! Everyone should just learn ed(1). :-)

Cheers, Ralph.
Maybe I'm just old but not having a text editor by default in the rootfs
seems wrong. I had a professor once say everyone should learn at least a
few vi commands because "no matter what distro/ flavor of Unix you have to
deal with vi will always be there". I admit one hundred percent that it

Yes. There is a plan to replace all package groups with metapackages?
