We are generating a list with each build where things are dropped. There are currently 3 cases for the CD sets: 1. On the KDE and xfce/lxde CD sets, we configure MAX_PKG_SIZE=300000000 (aka 300 MB) and that catches 1 package. CD1/README.excluded currently says: ============= For size reasons, the following packages were excluded from this disc set: openarena-data and that caused the following packages to be also excluded because of dependencies: openarena openarena-server ============= 2. On other binary CD builds, we use MAX_PKG_SIZE=500000000 and we don't currently exclude any binary packages. 3. On source CD builds, there are 3 source packages that are currently dropped: nexuiz-data openoffice.org texlive-extra We don't currently keep a log of the packages that are dropped *elsewhere*, just inside the CD sets themselves. That could easily be changed if desired, though. >Is there anything else from debian-cd that we should add?

Will need to update these numbers. :-) I've also been working on getting isohybrid images for i386, amd64 and i386/amd64 working. I've not yet described that fully, give me a little time and I'll have a patch for you to do so. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "I suspect most samba developers are already technically insane...
