Hi, mika:
I have a suggestion, next time you blog what packages get removed/added, could you add the description to the package names as well? So we get a brief idea what are added/deleted, without to look them up.
2nd, of all the followding deleted packages, are there any alternatives, or they are remove for space-saving purpose?

thanks

Just copy/paste the selection and run:
apt-cache show $SELECTION
But if there's enough space for descriptions I'll add them next time.

hgrep highlight output of grep
GNU grep:
grep --color=auto ....
Enabled by default for users (but not root).
numlockx enable NumLock in X11 sessions
It breaks many systems when using [xkg]dm. If you really need it install it.
qtparted A parted frontend using QT
It's unmaintained and has some annoying bugs. Use parted instead, of you really think you need a graphical frontend install gparted.
tripwire file and directory integrity checker
Useless on the live-CD and even useless for 99% of all grml2hd-installations. If you really need it you can install it on your own, you might also want to take a look at aide.

That's what I meant by "look them up". For guys like me who has no clue about 99% of what those packages are, especially the added ones, looking them up one by one is just a PITA.
But if there's enough space for descriptions I'll add them next time.
Thanks, FYI, here is how I showed the info. As you can tell, it will not work 100% of time.

Thank. And thanks of the info of each individual packages as well.
