I’m looking for a Debian based distro that has the same install process as arch. I hate bloated distros and haven’t been able to find anything yet. Anyone know of a distro like this?

    I recommend installing aptitude for a nice ncurses interface and then browsing the metapackages tree for an easier time installing stuff. You can configure aptitude on whether you want it to install recommended or suggested packages, so if you want the minimal, just disable both.

    Aptitude also has great visual handling of orphaned dependencies.
