After kicking up a big fuss over this, I now pretty much agree
with you. Any time lost by having to click through several extra
menus is offset by the time saved by not having to deal with the
issues that were created by the old "everything" button, after
the installation.
I've never seen any problems from an "everything" installation of either
redhat or fedora.
I counted about 800 clicks to get a complete install by clicking on all
of the separate packages, (not counting the couple of reinstalls because
I missed one of two from manual error).
So I disagree. This isn't a reasonable alternative. A one click
install would have been vastly preferable from my perspective.
