Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

When downloading updates for Ubuntu, the size of the updated .deb files
is way too high. We have to provide something similar to deltarpm, to
produce delta debian packages. An Ubuntu user who is on dialup is
definitely not able to install security updates, as the download size of
these updates is just too much for a dialup line. This is true for users
who have a limited download volume, too.

** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
