While trying to upgrade my Debian Testing system, it shows me a horde of
packages that could be upgraded. But take a look at the bottom of this
output
where it mentions the size et al. The size of the _to_be_fetched_ packages
is
227MB, while it is gonna use around 1.5MB of disk-space??
Kinda weird..I don't understand. I would simply download the single 1.5MB
Package, right?
Anybody experiencing similar problems?
I tried the same with aptitude, with the same results.
debian:~# apt-get upgrade
