--- Comment #266 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
OK just one more comment...

Why don't we create a metapackage for koha like "koha-standalone" or
"koha-small", which requires MySQL, Elasticsearch, and RabbitMQ (and any other
external dependencies which should be run on other servers but don't have to be
for a small instance).

That could offer an easy setup for small Koha libraries, while leaving
koha-common for more experienced and well-resourced Koha libraries and Koha
support providers?

(Side note: Once we have added RabbitMQ and eliminated our dependence on CGI,
and maybe packaged static assets separately, we won't have to include Apache
with Koha anymore either. The Apache dependency could be added to that
metapackage for novice users, but most of us could replace it with Nginx or
HAProxy or some other reverse proxy/load balancer.)

In my mind, the koha-common package is going to become smaller over time, as
we'll need fewer dependencies running on the same server as the Starman
application server. So maybe the best compromise is to retain a common/core
package and then have a more comprehensive metapackage which also includes that
common/core package. 

That should make everyone happy?
