Fw: Re: Amd 64 Server jeos on kvm test 1458 is oversized

[Brendan Perrine]

For 15.10 the minimal virtual machine install has had the useage of disk space increase from barely under 800M to have the disk space of the instlaled system be about 1.1 GB after installatoin on a virtual machine. This is for amd 64 systems on kvm. This could be after gcc5 stuff takes more space but I am not sure if there are packages included that are not needed. I installed ncdu to take a look around at space used and gcc5 seemed to be using 255 megabytes which could explain a lot of the increased useage. I am not sure there is something techinically with the install but the testcasae might need to have the amount of space incresed or have this check removed entirely. 

Also there is a minimal virtual machine test on esxi but I do not run that but something similar may be the case for that testcase as well.
