...with libpthread eating up about 80 kB. I do not know if the
inclusion of libpthread involves adding of more files, but if not I do
not see the problem. Since we would only need it for the graphical
installer, perhaps it is possible to package lipthreads into a new
udeb?
Excuse me if am talking total nonsense, surely things are much more
complicated than I can imagine for now.
