Subject: Re: [dyne:bolic] d:b 3.0.0 observations
Just a comment on db's lean'ness, and thought if possible that extra
packages could be in a folder on the dvd, which would not change the
non-bloat of db at all, but allow certain people to have particular
packages that they may prefer without them being auto-installed.
Is this possible?
