Hello,
I recently installed a conatainer baser on the ubuntu-12.04-standard_12.04-1_i386 template.
I was surprised to find pre-installed packages such as apache2 (and configured to start at boot), bind9 and samba.
What if I want to use nginx / lighttpdd / ... ? What if the server is not intended to be web server ? What if I don't need a DNS server ? Who would want samba on a server ?
Well, you get the idea. I know the answer, I will just apt-get remove --purge but I have to do this on every server I am installing from this template.
I think such packages should not be shipped by default.
Your opinions ?
