Yes, this is precisely true. My phrasing was poor, since I meant to say
that in order to keep up2date, I had to keep all these other packages.
Could you take a look at the doc to which I pointed you in the last
message, and see if you can recommend some solutions to me? Specifically
the second table of "controversial" package removals... I had to lose
up2date to get rid of these 15MB, I had to lose yum to get rid of
another 31MB, and I had to lose passwd to get rid of another 10MB.
That's three crucial packages lost, but 56MB of stuff deleted.
What can I proactively suggest to the Fedora packagers and developers
that will help all of us reduce the packages in a minimal install?
Cheers,
