Hi,

        We seem to be balancing 300MB for all archives, mirrors,
 transfers, CD's, everyone downloading packages, etc, against the
 requirements of a few developers who need to create debs for
 libraries older than those they are running? And who could always
 create a chroot jail for themselves (I can provide a chroot creation
 script for those who shall argue that this is too hard).

        For me, this seems a no brainer, that we don't need the
 bloat. I agree that laziness is a good programmer trait, but this is
 taking it too far. 

        Or am I missing the major advantage that over rides the bloat
 argument?
