Hi,
... ok. here the 'to-be-immediately-installed-{packages|ports}'
from a rather 'normal user'.
I'm used to install the following types of systems:
* Internet-Gateway / Firewalls
* Personal Workstations
* Business Servers (tm) ;) (Samba / intranet, etc)

fetchmail

zip / unzip
unrar

apsfilter
a2ps
ghostscript
hmmm. but I have to admit that I'm used to do install
