<div>@Elfy: Why do you consider these games as mere
"clutter"? They offer simple amusement to many, which I
find as important as, say, having multiple desktop
wallpapers to choose from. Or having multiple themes.<br>

Because one person's "Must have this or the world will end"
application/game is someone else's "Why is this even here?"<br>

Rather than pick on one aspect of my post - comment on the whole.<br>

This mail to the list is about <br>

It's not about<br>

<div>The installation packages of most of these games take
even less space on the iso, than an average wallpaper.....<br>
<br>
For instance: in Xubuntu 14.04, the installation package of
AisleRiot Solitaire is only half a megabyte: 585 kB, to be
exact. And the installation package of Minesweeper
(gnome-mines) is only one third of a megabyte: 298 kB.<br>
<br>

What problem does removing them solve? :-)<br>

Who said there's a problem?<br>
<br>
The subject came up in a meeting - there were only 2 or 3 people
there so it got taken here for more discussion.<br>

We're not going to be adding games - the question
is whether to remove<br>
the couple we do see.<br>
