10 Yeah, that's interesting and to some extent anyway probably involved
11 with why I'm getting a lot of the package I get. What I'm not
12 understanding yet is what packages themselves are in @system. Where do
13 those come from? I'm assuming that because of all these flags some
14 system packages then require more and more support packages as an
15 avalance, but I'm not understanding what list of packages gets the
16 whole things started.
