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 ...
the problem is that rpm does not support the concept of patches, i believe suse solution would result in rpm -V saying that files were modified.
we could try producing xdeltas of fixed rpms and have urpmi ask for the original cd to produce the fixed rpm
a better solution would be being able to modify rpm to allow patches to be applied.
