Problem: - there was a change - but the "diff" is not (obviously)
visible, though I may have not looked in all the right places.
The 'base' package has no history [1] - it came into existence 3 days ago.

My view - be helpful to have a list of packages no longer in base.

A list of what changed is needed so users can add whatever they deem
appropriate (presumably a kernel is one)  to their own personal install
package and ensure installations proceeed as usual.

So, if somone can provide a complete list of no-longer included packages
that would be super helpfui so we can all adjust as needed.

thanks.
