To having to package everything yourself....  Or trying to stuff a lot 
of things on a CD...

LTSP had some problems with fonts not being rendered properly. 
Something to do with the client/server nature of LTSP rather than 
gcomrpis itself.  I never did figure it out.

I was thinking if gcompris was made part of the base release of LTSP, 
then you wouldn't have the overhead of packaging it for that release. 
And I was thinking I might be the maintainer for that distro - maybe... 
  If things work out for me.
