** Description changed:

- Bug added to bug #82510 and was first submitted as part of bug #155163.
- Splitting that bug into two bugs - one is a dupe of bug #82510 and this
- is the other part.
+ This bug is splitted from #82510 and was first submitted as part of bug
+ #155163. Currently tuxpaint-stamps-default package is ~155MB (215MB
+ after installation) size!
  
  From bug #155163:
  
- "it would be nice to split very big (32 MB) tuxpaint-stamps-default
- package at least into two - tuxpaint-stamps-default and tuxpaint-stamps-
- extra."
+ "it would be nice to split very big (currently 155 MB) tuxpaint-stamps-
+ default package at least into two - tuxpaint-stamps-default and
+ tuxpaint-stamps-extra."
  
  From bug #82510:
  
  "2. There are lof of situations, when stamps are not needed, even unwanted, as sometimes existence of stamps limits creativity (kids keeps simply clicking on stamps instead of painting).
- 3. Even in description of tuxpaint package stamps are mentioned as optional, but in reality users are forced to install all stamps if they install tuxpaint :( From tuxpaint package description: "[..] Brushes and "rubber stamp" shapes can be dropped in and pulled out. For example, a teacher can drop in a collection of animal shapes and ask their students to draw an ecosystem.""

+ 
+ Also package tuxpaint-stamps-default shares 21.3 MB of identical files with itself, see

+ Please remove the duplication by using symlinks, see bellow for more info how to to this automatically during build:
