Enlightenment Desktop took little over 400MB of space. I have used only 8GB of space with several terminal including Terminator and Tilda.
If One removes LibreOffice, one can install all the utilities one need with 7.5GB to most 7.7GB all the applications.
This 20GB minimum is an illusion of some sort brought on by Linux users who have descended down from Microsoft Loyal Base.
Do not listen to them but enjoy Linux.
My installation is over.I am going for Easter Bunny Egg which I used to enjoy in early 1980s in United Kingdom.
United Kingdom was peaceful place then.
I did not like the Coffee they dissed out in the train stations, then and the announcement made by Jamaican Guards in the Melbourne station.
The railways ran exactly on time and only day I had to wait in the station for 2 hours was when they announced that there were major repairs on the tracks and railways would run late on some tracks.
They did not stop train services altogether like in Ceylon run by Indian Guys.
I want to make a little observation.
I think Israelis (use stuck to spy on Iranians), Italians, Polish and Japanese spy on you by using tiny play utilities on your Gnome.
Now i think even Chines use Mahjongg to for the same purpose.
Debian collects the user habits and contributes to Linux kernel in different countries may be looking at the statistics of your user data.
Having a backdoor to your PC is is easy and I found that Variety Wall Paper utility does that do not use it at all.
Unlike good old days now it is a paranoid world.
First think I do is to remove them
Then remove all the other languages in Firefox
Last of all I remove LibreOffice which is the biggest backdoor with lot of Macros, just like Microsoft Office pack.
I am not paranoid but my NUC computer belong to me not to Intel, just like Microsoft own YOUR computer. apart from opening a backdoor to the CIA.
I want to have my computer running fast and smooth and not waste resources that run on the background like cron jobs and heat up the CPU if not RAM.
I am very technical upon this issue.
I have removes all the muck and saved 2GB of space already.
This is why, Russian have their own Linux distributions. They are much clever and I advice you to not use beautiful DeeIn Desktop from China.
Debian 12.9.0. Edition
Debian 12.9.0. Edition has 62 applications.
One can install using Calamara Installer which takes about 25 minutes.
Old Graphic installer does it in about 20 minutes but takes a long time to remove the Live Image. In my case it takes a long time to read and update my GRUB Boot record. While installation is on one cannot browse the web whereas on Live Calamara Installation, one can browse the Web an give a current state of the installation, in other words a running commentary.
It is allover and the default browser is Firefox, which is my workhorse, in addition to Falkon, Dillo and Epiphany browser and Epipany game.
Stacer, USB utilities and Gaparted are my favourite utilities which I should run, now.
Synaptic Package Manager is my package installer by default.
Debian does not have Gparted as a Partitioning Tool.
