Re: binary-CD exceeds 650 MB -- any solution?
>What are the plans for the official CD?
main + contrib fit on one cdrom. so i propose
to use the official cdrom as long as possible.
people (not debian) should then create a third cdrom with
non-free source + binaries (parts), and maybe other stuff
(kde, netscape, whatever you want to include).
this solution should be fine for everybody.
for discussion, writing scripts/Makefiles, helping each other,
we should have a seperate list. several broken cd's
(e.g. packages != packages.gz) are a good reason to write
checking programs. pointing to the official cdrom is the best solution
for most people, but not for everybody.
at least i could also need a smarter mirror script :
it should keep symlinks inside the mirror as symlinks,
but for symlinks pointing to something excluded from mirroring,
it should download the file. this way i could burn a complete hamm...
