Dear fellow Fedora users, Deltarpms does help a little bit with many packages, but the kernel is not one of them :( kernel-devel, kernel-headers, kernel-firmware, etc do work though, how come kernel package is not the same? /* Package(s) data still to download: 19 M */ Otherwise, real savings and improvement would apply :), wonder how OpenSUSE handles this, one of my machines at school died and it had OpenSUSE and updates seemed fast, but they have only one kernel which I don't like, with Fedora we can keep more kernels :) [root@localhost ~]# yum install kernel-PAE kernel-PAE-devel kernel-headers Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel-PAE.i686 0:2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 set to be installed --> Processing Dependency: kernel-firmware >= 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 for package: kernel-PAE-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686 ---> Package kernel-PAE-devel.i686 0:2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 set to be installed ---> Package kernel-headers.i686 0:2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 set to be updated --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel-firmware.noarch 0:2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel-PAE.i686 0:2.6.31.5-127.fc12 set to be erased ---> Package kernel-PAE-devel.i686 0:2.6.31.5-127.fc12 set to be erased --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Installing: kernel-PAE i686 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 updates 19 M kernel-PAE-devel i686 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 updates 6.0 M Updating: kernel-headers i686 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 updates 746 k Removing: kernel-PAE i686 2.6.31.5-127.fc12 installed 72 M kernel-PAE-devel i686 2.6.31.5-127.fc12 installed 20 M Updating for dependencies: kernel-firmware noarch 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 updates 907 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Install 2 Package(s) Upgrade 2 Package(s) Remove 2 Package(s) Reinstall 0 Package(s) Downgrade 0 Package(s) Total download size: 27 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Setting up and reading Presto delta metadata updates/prestodelta | 445 kB 02:34 Processing delta metadata /boot/initramfs-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE.img: contents have been changed delta does not match installed data /boot/initramfs-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686.PAE.img: contents have been changed delta does not match installed data Download delta size: 1.7 M (1/3): kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.31.9-174.fc12_2.6.31.12-174. | 1.4 MB 03:39 (2/3): kernel-firmware-2.6.31.9-174.fc12_2.6.31.12-174.2 | 81 kB 00:21 (3/3): kernel-headers-2.6.31.9-174.fc12_2.6.31.12-174.2. | 153 kB 00:29 Finishing rebuild of rpms, from deltarpms <delta rebuild> | 7.6 MB 00:01 Presto reduced the update size by 79% (from 7.6 M to 1.7 M).
