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 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree...
