Comment:

 I've just added this to build_iso.sh:

 {{{
 # save space on ISO by removing the .svn/ dirs
 for DIR in `find /usr/local/share/gisvm | grep '\.svn$'` ; do
    rm -rf "$DIR"
 done
 }}}

 in the VM it saves 86mb (mostly dupes of incompressible screenshots), but
 on the ISO it may actually not save anything at all due to the fslint
 hardlinking of duplicate files.

 So I don't know if it will work, but as we are desperate for space it is
 worth a shot...
