Ok, it seems most people like dhcpcd being part of system. Then let me |
16 |
ask another question: Is there a way to get rid of packages in system |
17 |
that works with world upgrades without creating my own local profile? |
18 |
Making my own profile probably isn't difficult, but it needs to be |
19 |
maintained. And all I want is to get rid of 2 or 3 packages that I don't |
20 |
need/want to be installed. |
21 |
If there is no such way maybe it should be implemented, or is there a |
22 |
reason not to do it? |
