Pushed a commit for this so now the default software installed is:
Varnish is no longer installed as a default.
See commit here: https://github.com/hashbangcode/vlad/commit/63e5b5fbda41eb8258044894939bf84442e0e58a
Leaving open until we (I really) update the docs.
Excellent. Phil, in case you didn't know, if you reference the issue number in the commit message (e.g. "#149") GitHub will automatically add a reference to the commit here on the issue page.
I did know, it's just that I was being as thick as a whale omelette and forgot to add the issue number in when I wrote the commit...
I thought referencing the commit the other way around was good enough though :)
Haha :)
This is probably a good example of something that should be reinforced via our fancy new notice board (<cough>wordpress.com</cough>
): some users will only be setting the bare minimum of vars in their settings file knowing that the defaults are such & such. Now that the defaults are changing, those settings files may now misbehave a little.
What should the workflow for these notices be given that we have both a master & dev branch?
I suggest we add a notice when the change is in dev, we can always then link back to it and anything else via a new notice when a new master tag release comes along.
Also, would it be worth adding a new label to GitHub to indicate that an issue should have an accompanying notice? I'm gonna go ahead and do this, if you disagree then feel free to undo :) UPDATE: Turns out I don't have permission. Sorted, new label created.
Woop! Notice added to board: https://vladnotices.wordpress.com/2015/03/03/changes-to-which-software-is-installed-by-default/
Docs updated (Variables page). Closing.
In order to prevent the system from taking ages to boot the first time around we need to turn off some options that install software as a default. We should be left with a LAMP stack.
