[07:59] <zequence> So, what's the deal with the new core seed? What's the plan there?
[08:01] <Unit193> Something you can install from mini.iso that doesn't depend on all the extra packages, to get a more custom system.
[08:02] <zequence> Are you going to make -desktop depend on -core?
[08:02] <zequence> I'm assuming they will both have the same core components
[08:03] <Unit193> They do.
[08:03] <Unit193> Core has nothing added, of course.
[08:04] <zequence> Yeah, but right now, -core is a minimal duplicate of -desktop, where I would rather remove in -desktop what is already in -core and make -desktop depend on -core
[08:04] <zequence> Since it's not that way now, I was wondering if they are meant to have the same core
[08:05] <Unit193> Can do that to some extent, but core does drop some deps to recommends, so those would have to stay at least.
[08:06] <zequence> Isn't it also the other way around? Some recommends have become dependencies
[08:09] <ochosi> we can consider that, for now i think we should give testers some time to give feedback
[08:09] <ochosi> the seed file maybe isn't final yet and needs more tweaking
[08:10] <Unit193> zequence: Yes, yes it does.
[08:11] <zequence> Well, I would be interested in testing your -core with Ubuntu Studio, so that is why I have a special interest in that.
[08:12] <Unit193> zequence: Cool, we haven't set out testing, but there will be two ways to install it, one that gives you more minimal of a system.  You can try it with tasksel+mini.iso now, but we haven't updated the meta so the package 'xubuntu-core' doesn't exist yet.
