RFE: New sections
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:39:08 EDT
I feel that a few new sections should be added to the comps file: Scanner Support CD-Writing Support Digital Camera Support In particular there should be sections for software which only makes sense if you have the corresponding hardware (like scanners, cdrw, etc.) If you don't have the hardware you probably don't want to install the software.
Comps is undergoing review. I'm deferring this until there's a better idea of what the new comps will look like. Tim
What we are currently trying to do is to make the groups as self-containing as possible, to add these as specific groups in comps will be the opposite of that. While I understand why you are asking for this, the solution that we will have will be considerably different than what comps has been in the past. Keep an eye on future betas to get an idea of what we are aiming for. Tim
I don't see much differences between the 7.2 comps and the one in beta2.
That's because of the change in schedule and plans for the distro. There's no time to add this since it would require changes in the installer (new icons etc). Tim
