NOTE: In these lists, package names should be on one line by itself.

No spaces/tabs/comments on the same line.

cpp does not remove spaces/tabs, and perl apparently considers literally

THE "USEFUL CD 1 PROJECT" RATIONALE J.A. Bezemer, Jan-Apr 2001
|
||||
costar@panic.et.tudelft.nl
|
||||
|
||||
Quite many Debian users do not have the Complete Official CD set, but only
|
||||
one (or sometimes two) CDs. They expect that CD to be as useful as
|
||||
possibe, that is, to contain as much useful packages as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
We have four means to determine the usefulness of a (set of) package(s):
|
||||
the Popularity Contest (see above), the task-* packages, packages included
|
||||
on the official CDs of other distributions, and our own experience.
|
||||
|
||||
We can distinguish two main groups of people that will use a single Debian CD:
|
||||
1. People paying nothing
|
||||
2. People wanting to pay as little as possible
|
||||
|
||||
ad 1. This happens mostly at tradeshows/expos/conferences. We can further
|
||||
subdivide this group into two opposites:
|
||||
a. Complete Linux newbies that want to use Debian as their first
|
||||
distribution.
|
||||
b. Well-experienced Linux users that want to compare Debian to other
|
||||
distributions, mostly with the pre-determined intent to either switch
|
||||
to the "best" distribution for their own personal use, or employ the
|
||||
"best" distribution for some specific project in their company.
|
||||
|
||||
ad 2. This occurs mostly by people ordering CDs from regular vendors.
|
||||
While groups a. and b. are also present here, there is another group that
|
||||
deserves attention:
|
||||
c. Relatively experienced Debian users with a reasonably fast and cheap
|
||||
Internet connection that order CD1 to get the bulk of the upgrades, and
|
||||
fetch the rest from online repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
The mentioned groups each have specific expectations from their single CD.
|
||||
|
||||
ad a. Newbies often start using a Linux system guided by some manual or
|
||||
other piece of literature that may, or may not, be Debian-specific. Many
|
||||
introductory Linux books describe/demonstrate the same utilities and
|
||||
programs; however several of these examples don't have much to do with the
|
||||
daily routine of a more experienced user.
|
||||
|
||||
What they do use:
|
||||
- install tools
|
||||
- "easy" packages, like task-newbie-help, task-dialup(-isdn), X, Gnome
|
||||
|
||||
What they don't use:
|
||||
- "difficult to learn" packages, like task-sgml, task-fortran
|
||||
- development packages (well, they may want to compile a new kernel)
|
||||
|
||||
ad b. When comparing Linux distributions, quite often either a simple
|
||||
install without much packages is tried, to see "what it looks like", or a
|
||||
more elaborate install that mimics one's currently working system, to find
|
||||
out "what it feels like." Once Debian is recognized as the truly best
|
||||
distribution, a complete CD set will be bought which will be used to
|
||||
set-up the production system(s).
|
||||
|
||||
What they do use:
|
||||
- install tools
|
||||
- "easy" packages
|
||||
- to compare distributions: packages found in their current distribution /
|
||||
other distributions from which they have collected CDs
|
||||
|
||||
What they don't use:
|
||||
- packages that require much setup/tuning, or just "a long time to get
|
||||
functional", like task-database-*, task-news-server,
|
||||
task-parallel-computing-node
|
||||
- "heavy development" packages, like task-sgml-dev, task-objc-dev
|
||||
(maybe they are interested in these packages, but they will recognize
|
||||
them as being "advanced", and not expect them on the "most popular" CD)
|
||||
|
||||
ad c. Upgrading as much packages as possible from a single CD means that
|
||||
the most-used packages on Debian systems should be present on that CD.
|
||||
|
||||
What they do use:
|
||||
- packages used on at least 5% of all Debian systems (which happens to be
|
||||
the top 5% of the Popularity Contest results)
|
||||
|
||||
What they don't use:
|
||||
- the rest
|
||||
|
||||
Keeping all this in mind, a solution was developed that (implicitly) uses
|
||||
all mentioned "rating methods" to create a CD 1 that should answer the
|
||||
stated demands as well as possible. The lists were entered, tested, verified,
|
||||
cross-checked and adjusted, until an acceptable result was reached.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Further work/Recommendations:
|
||||
|
||||
The described procedure has resulted in a drastically reduced number of
|
||||
task-* packages that are forced to go on the first CD. But since the
|
||||
Popularity Contest can't handle task-* packages very well, most of them
|
||||
will be moved to the last CD in the set, while in many cases all of their
|
||||
"contents" are available on "more popular" CDs. It would make more sense
|
||||
if a task package is included as soon as, say, 50-70% of it's dependencies
|
||||
are included. Since all APT tools are available during CD image creation,
|
||||
this can probably be automated entirely.
