We can certainly make xkeyboard-config smaller. About half its on-disk footprint is localized strings, %langpack would help. The geometry subdir is completely useless, and I'm reasonably sure the xml it installs is really just source data and not anything apps or libs use. All told that'd get xkeyboard-config down to a hair over 2M on disk. - ajax -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
