Hello, Ugo.
I prefer having everything than choosing each package I will need, also not
knowing what I won't need and what I definitely need. There are many
packages depending on each other, so installing everything is just the
simplest to me. I don't like typing a command and it is not implemented, or
editing a /etc file and it doesn't exist. I have plenty of space anyway.
