Couldn't this be managed by rpmfusion using a comps file, and grouping various packages with "DVD support," "MP3 support," or whatnot? `yum groupinstall "DVD Support"`...
I think that's the best suggestion on how to balance packaging versus usability, so far ...
FYI for Livna I tried something else, but it didn't work out. I just used the same groups as Fedora in Livna (as Fedora Extras did in the past for Core as well) and made some crucial packages 'type="default"' -- for example gstreamer-plugins-ugly for the "GNOME Desktop Environment" . I assumed anaconda would then install gstreamer-plugins-ugly by default as "GNOME Desktop Environment" is selected by default. But anaconda/pirut did not do that (and I assume it still don't).
At our site,
kde-redhat?
@ UNL. We add items to various groups, say, kde-desktop, and then $ yum groupinstall kde-desktop not only includes the fedora items, but our added ones as well.
That should work for livna as well. Say you installed with KDE and now want to switch to gnome you should get the gstreamer-plugins-ugly as well. Other way around worked, too -- but I did not try it in the past past months.
But it does not work directly in the installer properly...
