Sometimes a big hard-disk is not a question. Sometimes you use hardware tha=

When you start with one package to contain both (debugging) binaries and=20

headers, you will go on with all of them. Now lets see how big debug-symbol=

s=20

and headers from KDE, Qt, Gnome, firefox and openoffice are.

People distributing their own packages in their "private" network. Only the=

package-building machine needs the dev-packages.

I didn't say anything about producing, did I?
The machine is meant to do "master"-processor for listening, both digital-

room-correction for at-home and live-foh-master. Don't need much disk their=

And newer disks with fine mechanics and narrower tracks on the disk are les=

fault-tolerant with respect to noise likely to be present at the foh.

Originally that machine was to run from a 4GB CF-Card. Only the motherboard=

wouldn't boot from it.

Now, why again should that machine have all the dev-stuff installed again?

Why should sound-installations have the complete development-chain installe=

I thought that it would be okay for jack to packaged with both server and=20

client-lib in one package. But considering that I have libpulse installed t=

make apps looking for pulse happy, while the pulseserver is not installed (=

make me happy), I have come to the conclusion, that jack also has to be spl=

in server and client libs (and development packages!). That way your favour=

music player can have an output plugin that looks for jack and if that is n=

running, looks for pulse and finally choose direct alsa for playback...
Have fun,
