just 1 more thing...
if you choose to download modules optionally, please dont forget about users
behind a proxy which requires authentication.... (im one of them at work :)

Since online installers use HTTP, and the user
got the installer off HTTP,
what would a proxy server change?

I didn't want to spam this discussion but I
have to.. What every other
software company also does is refusing to believe
someone might be behind a
proxy server. If you go this way, please make sure the installer doesn't
need a direct connection. Also online installers are generally a major pain
in the ass if you don't provide an offline installer too.

Why separate installers for x64/ARM?
Just do what every software company this side of the century does: a
400kb
installer which lets you select the packages you want, and downloads
them.

Spoke with Amine and Daniel. I've agreed to the lesser evil of bundling
the
FULL cmake. Reasons are if we want the BE to be flexible enough to be
used for more than just building ROS, we can't gimp cmake with the belief
that no one will need the things we didn't include. This is again on
Windows. I remain uninvolved with decisions about the Linux BE.

My vote on this:
CMake: bundle it, optional on installation
x64/arm: create individual installers
* CMake: bundle it, go for the (minimal) version without an installer.
It's
nothing "exotic" to install after all, just put it together with the
other utilities in RosBE.
* x64/arm: If build tool sizes are staying like this, create individual
installers. Just for testing, I'll try an x86/x64 multilib build of Binutils
and GCC though, would be nice to know how much smaller it is compared to
separate x86 and x64 compilers.
So in general, I agree with Timo :-)
