So it seems we have two optional tasks identified that could be done in this context: - e2fsprogs - break fsprogs from e2fsprogs - then make the main e2fsprogs non essential - remove e2fsprogs from e.g. container images - drop essential flag from bash - is dash considered compatible enough? could we drop bash in containers then?
What about #2 (diffutils): - I assume it might be needed in the apt/dpkg context to diff show old/new config? - If that is true could it detect if diff is missing and then fall back to not show the user the delta of conffiles? - Then this could be dropped as well from most minimal images -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1829370 Title: Discuss further entries in essential which might instead be minimal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1829370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
