I want to confirm that is what you mean (status of bug set to NEEDINFO.) http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/9/Everything/i386/os/Packages/ I'm actually not surprised about this. The above repo has 9897 packages in it, at this moment. That content was originally written and updated to reflect a specific package set, in this case, the DVD spin done by Fedora's release engineering team. It is in fact possible that 9 GiB is incorrect for that DVD installation, but not by the amount you are suggesting. What we won't ever do is try to accurately count for the size of every single package that could be installed at any given time. With dozens of new packages added each week, that is chasing a storm. It is the responsibility of a specific spin to post information about their full install as well, but since no one is making a spin bigger than a single DVD (currently), 9 GiB probably works for them. It does make sense to note in the documentation more carefully that this number is related specifically to the largest spin of Fedora put out by the Fedora Project, which is the Fedora 9 DVD. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
