The packages listed in the above table only install the necessary dependencies needed to run QGIS. Corresponding to those packages there are also meta packages with the suffix `-full-free` and `-full`. The `-full-free` contains additional optional dependencies that some popular (not included in the default QGIS install) plugins use. The `-full` includes everything from `-full-free` and also adds proprietary extensions like Oracle drivers, ECW and MrSID.
