Slugos-Native package installation

I'd like to pass on a warning about this package. It's supposed to install all the tools for compiling software on the slug. It probably is easier than trying to pick out the specific packages you need. One problem though:

It's HUGE!!! Well actually the package doesn't contain anything but it lists a lot of packages as dependencies so installing slugos-native will actually install all the dependancies.

A major part of the package consists of the perl-modules package which in turn installs every available perl module.

Notice the size of the "Depends" block. That's a long list, especially compared to the Debian "Build-essential" package that contains little more than the compilers and libraries.
