Therefore, rsync would not help. It could eb somewhat used anyways just doing a "ln -s" of the old file on the new name, THEN rsyncing it... I shoudl try but in theory it should read it for calculating the diff, then if writes a NEW file with the transfer and delete the old, so it would both have the "pro" of rsync and the "pro" of not copy the ACTUAL file (creating all the symlinks for every "newer" package in setup.ini is not so much work). In fact, I think I will try and do such a bash script to do this, to "test" the idea. Maybe only for packages ALREADY locally present.
