Hello all,
I went through an idea [1] to lighten the server package.
I tested it, and I found out, I can save about 40MB of space, if I'd move all Perl utilites to a standalone subpackage.
It would make sense to move them, so the users don't need to install Perl with the server package.
Especially in technologies like containers (or cloud images) size matters.
It all depends on how often are those utilities [2] used together with the server, sice we don't want to displace importatnt scripts.
In case, it would look like a good idea, there is also option to move to this subpackage other - infrequently used - utilities.
-> Q: Hey, Users and Admins, which utilities do you think are essential for the server?
Note:
It can be solved by soft dependencies, so those utils would be installed with the server by default.
