The question came from a couple of posts where debian is showing ~17000 |
| 4 |
packages and Fedora a couple of thousand less. They were bemoaning the |
| 5 |
size of the install media. The difference between distros is most |
| 6 |
likely little used packages, and the fact that rpm's for instance split |
| 7 |
headers and sometimes aux functions into separate packages, |
| 8 |
approximately doubling the package count. I presume debian do the same. |
