Which brings up a good point. Why can't just a "diff" for somw large
files be downloaded instead of the whole package. Seems like a HUGE
waste of bandwidth. I guess if I were a decent coder... No I'm not,
but there should be a better way... I mean what changed in the oxygen
icons? About 1MB if that...
Should be some experimental 'opt in' binary patching system for .debs
somehow.... The savings would be massive in the end.
