The ensuing discussion was about the installer. The point that I
attempted to reiterate was that my concern is that there is no
substitute for sysinstall's post-installation system configuration
features, and until there is we should keep it around. Sorry if I wasn't

I'm requesting that sysinstall remain in the base until there are
replacements for all of its functionality. So just to be 100% clear,
yes, I'm asking you to revert its removal.
