[Mageia-dev] Packages in Mageia liveCD

First I would congratulate everybody for the nice job done to build a
quite perfect KDE Beta3 LiveCD...

I only want to suggest to provide Gimp instead of hugin in the livecd :

Hugin is a perfect software to built panoramic photographs but is not
needed by every user ... and is limited in its use if you don't have the
tainted version of libpano and libpanotools
Even more it is useless to have it alone because you always need to use
gimp to correct, cut, print, the panoramas you have made.

Gimp would be more useful for everyone (but it's perhaps to heavy with
its dependancies and localized help rpm to stand on the live CD...)


If gimp may not be provided, hugin is nevertheless such a specific
software that you may use its place to provide something else (freeing
10 MB by suppressing hugin and libpano and libpano-tools)

Hope it will help to improve...
