Things are going to be very close with removing just neverball. So it
looks like we need another removal and it is stellarium.
This is for bug 1168983.
openlierox doesn't build with lua 5.2. It may be a while before
it gets fixed. Upstream hasn't done a release in a long time.
(Though the discussions forums appear to be active.)
libreoffice was added to the livecd desktop spin very late in the
development cycle and there isn't a lot of time to futz around with
this as we are freezing today. The change would likely put the games
spin oversize. For now just don't include libreoffice stuff. Later
we may want to keep it and adjust the included games.
The new nexuiz version is much larger and I need to remove it for space.
This also resolves the space issue created by switching to the fluidsynth
font.
bolzplatz2006, clonekeen, rott-shareware and vavoom are only playable with
downloads which doesn't work very well with a live DVD.
quake3 is playable with openarena, but currently that isn't included because
of size. If that changes, including openarena will bring it in without
a specific mention, so it should still come off the list.
For some reason a much more extensive list of desktop packages depend on
both evolution and libgweather, then one would naively expect.
So they are no longer candidates for fat removal.
poker2d-kde and ksirk are in poker2d and kdegames and shouldn't have been
in the ks file.
I am also geting ready to remove evolution and libgweather if I can, but
my first try doesn't keep them from being pulled in by something.
By dropping wine I keep a bunch of extra libs from being included in the
x86_64 spin so that it should be very close to the size of the i686 spin.
dosbox is an emulator and I think we should be showing off Fedora games
rather than 3rd party games.
wget is not needed now that the spin is based off the desktop. Some way to
grab online content will be included.
The Spins SIG decided to have iso's under 4 GiB for the alpha release.
This may change for the beta. Removing openarea appeared to be the best option
for getting under 4 GiB. If the Spins SIG allows > 4 GiB iso's later, it
will be added back.
