See what damage "Mini"DebugInfo is doing? Nobody (other than me) cared about
CD size for the live CDs, but surely DVD size for the install DVD matters!
It's time to revert "Mini"DebugInfo which isn't actually Mini at all!
(It
increases compressed size, i.e. the live image size and the size of the RPMs
on the DVD, by over 10%! The smaller installed percentages the feature
advertises are only achieved through compression, which obviously doesn't
help after compression, if it was even implemented at all.)
Stop the creeping biggerism!
+1 generally
only few people need any debug-infos
if they need - they can install package-debug
do NOT BLOAT the whole distribution for more or less nothing
5-10% bigger - one may say "these days hard-disks are cheap"
this is bullshit. in virtual environments with 50,100,500 instances
on expensive SAN-storages NOTHING is cheap and you havve to add
backups to the install size, mostly mutiplied....
