install list which really needs to be better automated. When I've got a

Fear not, I'm definitely interested in the VM. On the other hand, I
haven't had any time to spend on my unattended process i

now includes the installation of 7zip. Can anyone tell me if this is
necessary, and if not can we separate it out? I don't actually want 7zip
to be installed on the machines here.
