Yup. It's competition, such as yast & urpmi, are both smart enough to mix some installation and rpm file deletion in with the downloading so that disk freespace is a virtual non-issue.
I guess you are looking for the "--stepped" mode of smart. (It makes sure to first download and then instantly install a package, instead of downloading all packages at once and installing them afterwards.) Thanks, Christoph -- Christoph Thiel, Tech.
