[DONE] split bunsen-images?

I think this will be doable - I'm suggesting splitting the bunsen-images package into bunsen-images-base and bunsen-images.

Bunsen-images-base will hold only the default wallpaper and other images necessary for the default desktop only. Bunsen-images will hold the alternative background images that were in the package up to now. The new bunsen-images will depend on bunsen-images-base so upgrades will work. The default iso, and bunsen-meta-all, will bring in both packages, but the 32 bit iso and bunsen-meta-lite only bunsen-images-base.

The idea is that users who have small drives or slow connections and are happy with the default desktop don't have to keep the multi-megabyte images package.

I don't see any problem in doing this - does anyone else?

Perfect, +1, do it.

It'll only take a few minutes, but I need to wait till the default wallpaper is decided...

(I just realized)

Now done.
Bunsen-images weighs 7.3MB and bunsen-images-base is 250kB so that's a worthwhile saving for people who only want the default images.
