Why do I complain? Because one day I was upgrading texpower and it
wanted half the remaining space on my root partition.
If you look at the command line I posted, I have TeX installed. This
is actually really about one 400MB package, texlive-fonts-extra. Does
this really suddenly need texlive-fonts-extra? And does a 400MB
package made up of 150 CTAN packages really need to exist?
