I dislike very much the removal of perl from the default install.
The rather temperamental behaviour of anaconda when working with
kickstart files is ... unsatisfying.
So is the behaviour when doing interactive installs against a virtual
machine (vmware server as host), temperamental to say the least. The
trouble was with the geometry of the screen and the selected graphical
chip.
See Also RedHat and CentOS. No telnet,
netstat, etc.
My lack of fannish enthusiasm for the RH family of Linuxes got me
fired from Red Hat.
Nonetheless, their willingness to remove old, insecure legacy stuff
from the OS so that users are encouraged to get with the programme and
move on to modern modern equivalents -- ssh, the ip command, whatever
-- is something I strongly approve of, and wish Debian and its kin
were quicker to imitate.
Also see merging /bin + /sbin + /usr/bin + /usr/sbin into one and
other such steps.
