I'm sorry. I just don't seem to see any advantage to removing an
application simply to tell users they can use a different distribution
to get the application and use it. Why not just keep the application?
Wording it different does not change the end result. In my own mind, if
you tell me to just install a different distribution meta-package, I
wasted my time installing the distribution. I may as well go install
the other one, which you tell me has what I want.
