Why Steam on Linux matters for non-gamersWhy Steam on Linux matters for non-gamersPosted Sep 22, 2013 21:32 UTC (Sun) by khim (subscriber, #9252)In reply to: Why Steam on Linux matters for non-gamers by lsl Parent article: Why Steam on Linux matters for non-gamers
The result of just stuffing a whole distro archive with >10k packages into some image isn't going to be acceptable to most people. Why would you want to stuff >10k packages in the image? You only need to include libraries with enough users. If there are 2-3-5 packages which need a particular library they can carry it with them, it's not a big deal. This simple procedure will shrink you list from >10k packages to 300-500 packages (or may be even less), which can easily be included in a single image. Programs themselves can come from program authors: somehow it works for MacOS, Windows, Android and iOS, why wouldn't it work for Linux?
