Only the diff between the PC copy and the mirror is downloaded. However, for packages this is not possible. This is due to the 'repomd' meta format (see http://linux.duke.edu/projects/metadata/), which provides all package data in a single file. So even if just a single package has been changed, one needs to download the complete xml file - containing data of all packages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
