I was actually thinking the other day about why couldn't apt support rsync:// URLs? That would be the way to implement it. OTOH, I wonder how much benefit binary diffs could really give. Since every .deb is mostly gzip compressed data, wouldn't you often need to retrieve the whole thing again anyway? -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
