I was hoping to trim a little fat not break things. I may never need
cantor but if I do, I would like it to work without me having to figure
out why it is broke. Plus, next time a upgrade comes along, I got
issues again. It's going to pull in a update that fails to compile and
its going to upset me greatly, much more so than having fortran or
whatever installed.
Maybe you wasn't around during the GREAT hal and xorg mess I ran into.
Trust me, it wasn't steam, it was flames. I would like to avoid that.
I wanted to wring that nerds neck for rendering my keyboard and rat
useless. :-@
