Manjaro 17.1.11 Hakoila
I installed the file manjaro-architect-17.1.11-stable-x86_64.iso (527 MiB).
I want to show the install-size footprint, compared to a near full setup.
It you compare the footprint on the root partition (/), it doesn't look bad 4.8 vs 6.5 GB. But if you include the /home
as well:
Initial install size grows from:
908
🡒 929 pkg's
4.9
🡒 8.2 GB
KDE minimal comes with some programs:
Falcon web browser
kate text editor
...
All I basically installed was:
yay (AUR helper)
copyq
consolas-font
google-chrome
p7zip-gui
spotify
sublime text
xnviewmp
visual-studio-code-bin
foxitreader
discord
filezilla
I've installed a lot of packages. How do I see what I installed?
pacman -Qe # see all packages installed
# if you have sublime text, type in the next 2 lines:
pacman -Qq > mypackagessubl mypackages
wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Tips_and_tricks
expac -H M "%011m\t%-20n\t%10d" $(comm -23 <(pacman -Qqen | sort) <(pacman -Qqg base base-devel | sort)) | sort -n
Paste this in to save time, to view all pkgLists
pacman -Qe > pkgList2.txt
pacman -Qq > pkgList3.txt
pacman -Qi | awk '/^Name/{name=$3} /^Installed Size/{print $4$5, name}' | sort -h > pkgList4.txt
expac -H M "%011m\t%-20n\t%10d" $(comm -23 <(pacman -Qqen | sort) <(pacman -Qqg base base-devel | sort)) | sort -n > pkgList5.txt

I installed the other Manjaro minimal. It's basically arch clone. Came with dolphin, konsole, & KDE only. The install was 2.7 GB and 460 pkg's.
By the time I got the same things installed it was at 5-6 GB and 650 pkg's, and not working as good as the distro
above. I gave up when I couldn't get the Nvidia drivers working completely.
It lacked manjaro themeing, bug free KDE taskbar, tons of featrues I'm used to, and none of the working audio firmware for my SBZ.
