Hi, Sven.. I never seem to "think" these things all the way through.
First thing I did (after emailing that observation) was immediately
narrow it down to being the whole cpp-5 / gcc-5 package family that
upgrades together.
Secondly, it dawned on me I should have disclaimed that MAYBE
something had that much bloat, but I still couldn't imagine something
really did. *grin*
That's AMAZING that Debian Users will gain that much more breathing
room. Congrats to those who created that extra space.. *WOW, thank
you!*
Cindy :)
