Testing Lubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), part 3.

Packages out: ace-of-penguins, mtpaint, simple-scan, sylpheed, osmo
Packages in: xfce4-screenshooter, phatch

Removing some packages to trim down the Lubuntu installation further.

1. ace-of-penguins, which scares you to think that once you remove that the lubuntu-desktop package will also be removed. But not to worry, as this is only a metapackage and the lubuntu desktop will remain ok. All games will be uninstalled.

2. other packages:
mtpaint
simple-scan
sylpheed (email client), which also removes slypheed-i18n and sylpheed-plugins
osmo


Installing a screenshot capture utility, as Lubuntu doesn't have this out-of-the-box.
1. xfce4-screenshooter - has far less dependencies than ksnapshot or shutter packages

And phatch, a photo batch processor which can resize multiple images in one go, among other things.
2. phatch
