??? I do not understand. Did I do something wrong?
I'm saying that the edits I did, have already eliminated any unneeded
packages. I also deleted the entire GPG stuff. So, I'm saying it is already
contributor specific, and even desktop specific because there is already
a good serverguide specific "getting started" page (which needs the
docbook packages).

The packaging page, where Benjamin got a bunch of the content, and where
Hannie pointed to that time, can stay as the packaging reference.

However, and due to not needing GPG, I now agree with including the
remaining content, rather than linking to the packaging page.

There are still some other things to agree on, from my e-mail
of the other day (which is why we are currently maintaining two copies
of the page at the moment).
