Now that we abandon the 703 MB (CDROM) capacity limit for the XFCE ISO,
some of the packages that used to be included only in DAW and LEAN can
again also be included in XFCE.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Goal is to keep the XFCE image below 700 MB (CDROM size) while adding
programs that are needed.
|

And switching from firefox to seamonkey in the XFCE ISO
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Most importantly, there were two package renames in -current:
aaa_elflibs -> aaa_libraries
glibc-solibs -> aaa_glibc-solibs
|
|
|
|
|
| |
XFCE notification area suddenly requires libdbusmenu and gobject-introspection.
Also, I fixed Plasma5 Vaults in the LEAN image by adding fuse.

The new 'LEAN' variant of liveslak is a 1.5 GB ISO, containing
basic but powerful XFCE and Plasma5 desktop environments.
Useful if you want a small-ish Live OS but you feel that the XFCE ISO is
too seveery stripped for your purposes.

The increased size of applications forced a decision to remove
all development tools (glibc, gcc, make, bison, lex, llvm and the like)
from the small XFCE image. In turn I was able to re-introduce a couple of
programs that I had to prune during the years. To be honest, I have never
used any of these development tools in the XFCE Live OS anyway.
All removed development tools are now available in a separate package list
called 'z01_swdev.lst' but this module is not built by default.

The DAW gets a couple new audio related programs, while both the
PLASMA5 and DAW variants need the mozjs68 package to support the
custom polkit in 'ktown' Plasma5.

It's increasingly difficult to keep the XFCE ISO below CDROM media maximum
size, 737.280.000 bytes (703 MB). Concessions had to be made to the list
of applications present in the XFCE ISO.

Note that the Plasma5 ISO size reduction was achieved by removing
almost all of the 'alien' packages which originate in my regular
package repositories.
Which means if you want a Plasma5 Live with calibre, libreoffice,
qbittorrent, vlc and all the other goodies, you will have to create
a persistent Live USB stick and add my packages as "addon modules".

I added ed, bc, smartmontools because they are small and someone needed it.
The xf86-input-libinput was added to fix the TrackPoint with recent versions
of the X server.

With the goal to make the 'min' module smaller so that potentially
we can compress it with zstd instead of xz and thus minimize the size
increase of the resulting squashfs module (~10%).
Quick benchmark with just the 'min' module zstd-compressed and the rest
xz-compressed shows more than 10% reduction in the boot-up time of the
XFCE Live OS. Unfortunately, this will add 20 MB to the ISO size which
will have to come from somewhere in order to keep the ISO size below
703 MB.

ghostscript is again removed to make room for new additions in -current.
|

Added:
+ libcap-ng
+ libmnl
+ libtasn1
+ pcre2
Removed:
- xpdf (started depending on qt which we don't have in the XFCE ISO)

The hostname utility was split off into its own package, it was part of
both util-linux and net-tool.

Yet more aggressive pruning of unneeded files (documentation mostly).
Packages that were (re-)added:
min/ghostscript
min/libedit
min/libidn2
xbase/SDL2
xbase/SDL2_gfx
xbase/SDL2_image
xbase/SDL2_mixer
xbase/SDL2_net
xbase/SDL2_ttf
xbase/libbluray
xbase/ocl-icd
Packages that were removed:
min/elvis
min/lilo
xapbase/xpaint
xbase/djvulibre
xbase/gtk+
xbase/liberation-fonts-ttf
xbase/xv
xfce/orage

No more xaos or bsd-games, and the Tibetan TrueType font tibmachuni-font-ttf
has been removed as well. But you get cups back in their place.
|
|
|
|

Packages added:
+ netkit-ftp
+ netkit-routed

Added packages:
+ bind
+ dnsmasq
+ idnkit
+ traceroute
Removed packages:
- xfractint
- xlockmore
- xmms
The XFCE ISO has xaos as alternative to xfractint. The xlockmore program
is not used anyway (we have xscreensaver).
XMMS was a hard call but there's audacious still.
In return, you get useful stuff like nslookup and host, and dnsmasq is
required by the PXE server (soon to be added).

The squashfs-tools are an essential package when using 'setup2hd',
the Slackware Live OS' harddisk installer.
The XFCE ISO does not contain setup2hd at all (it only gets added
to ISOs with a huge kernel) but if someone creates a custom Live OS
containing a huge kernel but based on the minimal XFCE variant,
this custom Live OS requires the presence of unsquashfs,
or else 'setup2hd' will fail.
