Where does the value of "PACKAGE REQUIRED" come from?
Because there are those that contain the full list and some that are only partial.

Full:

as it is doing in some other distros.

1. How one can swap GDM for Slim?

2. How one can get rid of DDM forever, should one decide to keep Slim?

Only (as simple as possible and) Idiot-proof answer please!
We don't have GDM installed by default in 15.0, we have lightdm. But in any case, if you want to replace lightdm with slim, just remove lightdm. The startup scripts just check if one of lightdm, lxdm, slim, gdm, kdm, sddm or xdm is present (in that order) and use whatever it finds first. Simple. If you want lightdm back, reinstall it.

Thank's for the response -- it worked without issues!

I noticed that Murrine engine is not preinstalled -- maybe one should add it to default install, as many themes are using it.

As of Salix nIceWM ...

It is basically a default Xfce install, with added Slim, IceWM, SpaceFM, Murrine and some custom IceWM and Slim themes.

It is interesting because it is not only nice looking, but also runs only on some 180 ~ 230 MB RAM.

Yes, the icon themes, GTK themes and such can affect RAM usage.

I also fixed the Start Menu icons.

Extra login screen and theme for girls -- Sexy Salix. ;)

It should be uploaded in an hour or so ...

Thanks for the notification, I have fixed those. If you find any more, please post about them in the forum.

As to how the dependency lists are created, it's mostly through a tool that is called depfinder: https://github.com/gapan/depfinder
This works perfectly for binaries, but might miss things for script executables, like python or perl (mirage is a python script), or things that have been packaged in a weird manner (this is the case for mypaint, the 64bit package uses /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64).

I've forgotten about that. I removed one of them now, thanks.

It really doesn't. You can install a printer, print or do anything without having Qt or PyQt5 installed through the CUPS interface. The hplip GUI requires PyQt5, but you don't have to use the gui.
