Here's a thought:

1304 random packages will install 724 MB of data in /usr/share/doc

I'm sure there is /something/ to gain here. If every package on average
installs ~0.5 MB of docs... Would it worth figuring out what docs should
be on the LiveCD in the first place? I guess removing everything RPM
calls docs is too much, as this will include man-pages as well.

Any thoughts?
