I think we all have our personal pet packages we would like to have installed by default, and all our answers would be a bit different from each other. Mine are "flip" and "vim" (instead of the default vim-tiny...). There is just so much space available to whatever become the Ubuntu default, and every kb counts; and it's not like the extra few seconds to install them in the few cases during the year I setup a system totally from scratch will kill me. -- Daniel Robitaille -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
