[Bug 2100984] Re: ubuntu cinnamon minimal is not minimal. installs all games, apps ect.

[Dan Bungert]

I have confirmed that selecting minimal in bootstrap on
ubuntucinnamon-24.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso indeed performs the minimal
install, from the perspective of what is offered on the ISO.  Selecting
minimal in the UI results in the minimal squashfs being used as the
install source image.


Looking at today's plucky build, I see the following:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/+livefs/ubuntu/plucky/ubuntucinnamon/+build/757988
livecd.ubuntucinnamon.minimal.squashfs (3.2 GiB)
livecd.ubuntucinnamon.minimal.standard.squashfs (31.8 MiB)

Similar for noble:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/+livefs/ubuntu/noble/ubuntucinnamon/+build/758669
livecd.ubuntucinnamon.minimal.squashfs (2.5 GiB)
livecd.ubuntucinnamon.minimal.standard.squashfs (38.0 MiB)

These strongly suggest that the seeds need to be revisited, to move more
things from minimal to standard.
