I confirm this, and add that this is probably one of those cases where
the post-install script may be useful. For example, since we are going
to include other mail/ftp/www/news clients, we should try to:
install the (standard RH) rpm above, 26 MB and all
have the post install script remove anything possible from
those 26 MB regarding the {mail..} functionalities
above, + support for unneeded fonts/languages/games...
on my RH 7.2 desktop, removing the directories listed below would
recover 13016 Kbytes, and erasing the info pages another 7 megs. Now
removing documentation is much uglier than all the rest, and should
really be a conscious decision of each user, but leaving off the rest sounds
as a reasonable default for a RULE desktop user, doesn't it; on a
server, assuming one wants emacs on it, even docs could happily go
away, probably.
