Except if you use their .patch.rpms:

RPM     XFree86 4.3.0.1 (i586)          9938 kB
Patch-RPM       XFree86 4.3.0.1-patch (i586)    344 kB

At present we make huge updates (ie the kdebase one) for really small
fixes (I'm guess a less than 5 kB source patch) which result in really
minimal changes to the files distributed (I'm guessing less than 10kB),
but we distribute full new versions of all subpackages ...

There must be a better way ...

Buchan
