Remove base software

Good day,

Is there a way to remove base default software like Poorman, MIDI player, some demos,… because they can’t be uninstalled from Haikudepot nor with pkgman.

Thanks in advance.

Not directly.

You can either blacklist the entries for the package (so they won’t show up anymore) but this won’t save you any disk space.

Or unpack the haiku package delete those and repack it, or compile it yourself and change these things. But on updates this will be reverted again.

Good day @nephele ,

That is what I presumed. It would be nice that those things could be removed, or not installed by the installer (checking/unchecking the option). To me, it does not make much sense, i.e., to add TV software when I just want the Be decorator.

Thanks for your explanation.

It doesn’t use any significant space. Since Deskbar currently has no ways to remove entries you can blacklist it if that entry is too much.
