I think you may have missed the point of the message I sent. My suggestion was to put the "unnecessary" headers into separate packages. That's all. I'm not suggesting removal or obscuration of anything. Those who like to have that kind of swill on their systems can continue to install it. That great majority who do not need it will get some of their bytes back by omitting it. The underlying problem is that ON has some huge packages (such as SUNWhea) with undifferentiated masses of files inside. In many cases, you can't pick and choose what you want. You get everything or nothing. That's what I'd like to see fixed. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
