Bug#447212: libgcj-doc: Uses lots of additional disk space when installing
Package: libgcj-doc
Version: 4.2.2-3
Severity: minor
libgcj-doc is big, and when using apt for install/upgrade
it says that will use about 300MB of hard disk space,
(or only few MB if upgrading). But if i have previous version
of libgcj-doc, 50MB of free disk space, and apt says that
10MB of additional disk space will be used it isn't true.
libgcj-doc on installation temporarly want to use about 200
(mayby 300) magabytes of hard disk space in /usr. This is
in disagreement with apt and makes installation to _fail_,
becaouse no free space is left in /usr.
I suggest checking free space somehow or changing instalation
procedure to install files directly.
There is similar problem in other documentation packages
(like kdelibs4-doc, apt says 380KB additional space will
be used on upgrade, but temporarly it uses about 300MB)
