It's not the bare minimum to make the system work (that's Essential: yes). It's the standard stuff that everyone expects to be on a UNIX system, including things like a working c & c++ compiler, etc. 70% of users using something is, IMO, a very strong argument for it to be installed by default.

It just means if you don't manually select packages, it will be installed). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
