So don't install the games set, the X set, or the comp set
if you
don't want that stuff.

I think the point I'm trying to make is, apache is
certainly not
something *most* people will use.

There is argument in another thread about perl being
included in the
base distro, which is someting people will use more than
apache
probably.

The reason why apache and perl shouldn't be included is
because they
are moving, 3rd party targets. They are better suited to
pkgsrc.

And of course, GCC isn't... a moving 3rd party target?

Gilles.

Good point. It's also licensed under that bad boy of the we're-proprietary-but-we-want-to-appear-friendly-to-open-source world, the General Public Licence.
