From IRC: <adamw> elad661: it's called 'system-config-date' because it was previously called Date and Time. see the problem with that? <elad661> yes, I do <elad661> but I think we could either remove it (since gnome's control panel provides the functionality) or find a better name. <elad661> we probably need it for firstboot, so removing the desktop file might be a good idea
In my opinion, the search-based shell overview makes this kind of redundancy less problematic than it was in a traditional menu system. But yes, it is a bit of a wart that anaconda and its dependencies end up on the installed system when installing from a live-cd.
- why is "remote desktop viewer" installed by default? I thought
gnome boxes provides this functionality now.
Does it actually provide this functionality now ? Have you tried ? I know that the goal is to eventually support it, but I am not positive that the feature will be in 3.4 / F17.
