We don't run Debian but have had to make similar adjustments. On CentOS
for instance, remove the "mlocate" package.
Log rotation still runs daily on our domU hosts--I've considered
staggering the times so they don't all run at 4 AM.
(Seriously, is there a Linux OS designed for virtualization. No matter
which I've started with, I end up stripping them down to the essentials.
I've been meaning to take a look at Amazon's Linux AMI for EC2 to see
how it measures up.)
