No, it was pointed out that this cannot be done for LiveCD material, as |
| 12 |
the packages would have a different content as a regular install. So |

this is just out of the question. |

For those wondering : "find /usr/lib64 -name "*.a" | xargs du -ch" will |

tell you how much disk space is wasted by static libraries. |

On my Gnome box, this is 246M. I know we won't be able to bring this to |

0, but having it closer to 10~20M is a very worthy goal imho. |
