Hi All,
I hope that everyone is doing well.
Lately, I have been experimenting with FreeBSD and generating a small
version using the mfsBSD scripts from the FreeBSD 12.1.
To that end, I wanted to take a look at the absolute minimum installation
of Xorg with just an Xterm so I tried a pkg fetch command:
[root@freebsd ~]# pkg fetch -d -o /root/off-pac xorg-minimal
In the /root/off-pac directory I get:
---------------------------------------------------------
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up to date.
All repositories are up to date.
Number of packages to be fetched: 65
The process will require 212 MiB more space.
212 MiB to be downloaded.
----------------------------------------------------------
And using:
[root@freebsd ~/off-pac/All]# ls -lhS | awk '{print $5, $6, $7, $9}'
(Sorted from largest to smallest)

---------------------------------------------------------
>From these, I immediately see some HUGE non-Xserver related files:
158M Jul 9 llvm80-8.0.1_3.txz (I think that this has to do with Clang
and other compiles ???)
16M Jul 8 python37-3.7.8.txz
14M Jul 8 perl5-5.30.3.txz
.
.
etc.
And, while still being new here, wonder if they are truly needed and also
of the list of 65 files what can I really eliminate as not being essential
to an "absolute" minimal Xorg installation.
Also, I may not need the "wayland" stuff since I am trying to run just pure
Xorg and an Xterm that is all.
Anyone have any experience or suggestions on things that can be safely
eliminated from this list so that I can try to add them to the mfsBSD build?
Any help would be truly appreciated.
Cheers and have a good weekend,
Lonnie
