 dressupgeekout | Yup, GCC supports all the bazillion different platforms NetBSD runs on | 22:22:32 |

| dressupgeekout | Yeah, perhaps ... thereβs some very exotic hardware out there though | 23:46:07 |

 Jaco Bergh | Hi guys! ππI'm curious, is there any significant difference between installing from scratch or using the desktop-installer on FreeBSD?
My question is would there be any unnecessary bloat installed i won't use? | 08:15:04 |
| Jaco Bergh | Google doesn't seem to satisfy my search with the answer I'm looking for | 08:15:53 |
 Follpvosten | I don't think there is a desktop installer for FreeBSD? | 08:21:26 |
| Jaco Bergh | In reply to @Follpvosten:matrix.org
I don't think there is a desktop installer for FreeBSD? Desktop-installer you can install through pkg command, it's a scriptπ | 08:22:00 |
| Jaco Bergh | After completing FreeBSD install, it's a quick way to setup a desktop FreeBSD in less than an hour | 08:23:08 |
| Follpvosten | Interesting, hadn't heard of that before | 08:25:58 |
| Follpvosten | Well you can read the source here: https://github.com/outpaddling/desktop-installer/blob/master/desktop-installer | 08:26:03 |
| Follpvosten | If you Ctrl-F for "install_packages", you can see what it installs | 08:26:14 |
| Follpvosten | What it always installs is:
install_packages sysutils/dmidecode devel/gmake archivers/unzip net/rsync \
devel/gmake ports-mgmt/dialog4ports
| 08:30:11 |
| Follpvosten | The rest depends on which desktop you choose; the package lists all look fairly short, but that's because it's mostly metapackages. | 08:30:47 |
| Follpvosten | For example, if you choose KDE, it will install the kde5 metapackage, which in turn installs the whole kde-baseapps, kdegames etc. metapackages, so that would be a lot; if you did it yourself instead, you could just opt to take plasma5-plasma and kde-baseapps to get a more minimal setup. | 08:35:17 |
| Follpvosten | If you really want it minimal, I'd probably recommend reading the script and either choosing a path that suits your needs, or just taking the lessons about common packages and configuration from there and installing your desktop yourself. | 08:36:15 |

Thanks for the infoπI'll play around a bit, from scratch might be betterπ | 08:44:29 |
