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!
Not to let silly things like facts get in the way of a good rant, but the
images went over size because MATE & texlive are now getting pulled in via
deps when they weren't before, not because of incremental minidebuginfo
changes.
Carry on...
