* apps-console-core has been effectively replaced by splash
* apps-x11-core, apps-x11-games have been removed
* ssh-server-* were added quite a while ago, add these here
* x11 has been added
* x11-base has changed behaviour slightly
* doc-pkgs was added
* nfs-server never exported the entire /, so remove this comment
