It may reappear after FC6 releases, but this was a new subpackage snuck in WELL after the feature freeze that added over 100M to the distro size. This was unacceptable, especially as it is adding Yet Another Spell database to the system instead of reusing one of the many already there.

At the risk of adding fuel to the fire, if packages in extras are indeed not second class citizens, what would be wrong with putting emacs in extras?? For sure you do not need it to have a usable system.

Following that line of reasoning I have much better proposition. Moving to extras just openoffice and kde packages will result in real space savings, as opposed to few megabytes here and there, and a system will definitely be usable.

For a lot of users openoffice is core. I'd love to see KDE and Gnome on different CDs so you can pull one or the other but its extremely hard to do so don't hold your breath
The big problem is that for any set of packages there is a mailing list member who considers that package "very important"

I know, hence the qualification above and just expanding on what was said earlier. :-) OTOH, personally, I would not mind to see openoffice in extras the tiniest bit but the proposition was not all that serious.

Right. Taking that to extreme a "core" could be a minimum required to bring a networking up and all other stuff in extras. Quite feasible in some situations but I think that are very far yet from where that would be sane in general.

One problem with Extras is still that there is no good way for a normal user to access it without reasonably fast Internet access. There are no ISOs (or any way for a normal user to make such).

/+1 Extra is fine when you're sitting on a fast DSL/Cable line. Downloading 240MB [1] worth of OO packages is less fun when you're doing it on a 56kbps modem line. If/when it'll be possible to generate and torrent an Extra DVD/ISOs upon release day -and- use them seamlessly within Anaconda/Yum/etc, pushing KDE, OO and, well, emacs into Extra will be less intrusive.

90% of what's needed to create a CD with a set of packages from Extras that can be installed with system-cdinstaller[1] is actually there.
So, what's needed is (essentially) -- * A comps file. This could be generated by pulling the Extras comps file and then trimming it in an automated fashion. It might even be fine to just use the whole file and then things which aren't there automatically "drop out". Needs someone to test * Run repotrack (from yum-utils) to pull the set of packages and their deps * Run createrepo appropriately * Drop an autorun into place * Run mkisofs
And then voila -- you have your CD of packages for Extras. Anyone want to write the script? :)
Jeremy
[1] This is the app that runs if you do the autorun off of a CD. It does installs from a single repo and falls back to depsolving with the base repos if it has to.

There exists this "jigdo", or "Jigsaw Download", project. http://www.atterer.net/jigdo/ It allows to download "custom images". It requires a support on a server side and I never really used it, so I cannot tell how it works in practice, but it sounds interesting.

Jigdo creates an ISO image from a description file and the contained files. It is handy when you already have all the files. In the world before bittorrent, it was easier to mirror a repository of packages instead of the ISO.
Jigdo doesn't help with creating the ISO image. mkisofs is still needed for that. It can help with distributing the image.

Precisely. But "all files" for a particular variant may mean only a subset of all available files. Also you may already have a substantial portion of these files. Say in a development cycle when you are testing installation and only some bits-and-pieces were really changed.
In the world before bittorrent, it was easier to mirror a repository of packages instead of the ISO.
Bittorrent sometimes works and sometimes is not that great for assorted reasons.
Yes, "the real image" has to be reassembled by a receiving end of jigdo.
