I disagree with it being a bug in the package; if the data needs to be
so big because of quality of textures or number of levels or whatever,
that's just how the world is.
It's not like it's a bug in linux-image-2.6.31-1-amd64 that it doesn't
fit on a 16MB USB stick, which is a similar case albeit with a scale
difference.
