Package: debdelta
Version: 0.35
Severity: wishlist

  Hello:

  It would be nice if debdelta could inform about the total size to be 
downloaded before it starts downloading, similarly to what aptitude does:

<<
Need to get 95.8MB of archives. After unpacking 8972kB will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
>>

  Additionally, showing the actual total downloaded size. This feature can 
also be seen on Fedora's Presto [0] which shows a percentage of download size 
saved when using it.
 

  Thanks and regards,
