Opinion: More Default Packages

[Victor Pelt]

i'm sorry but i think you might want to consider a different
distribution. the whole point of a source distro is that you 
compile your own source. 

also, you might want to try to turn on ccache on and not use O3
or other strange optimalizations which might slow down compile
