I agree that on a running system, this is not the most effective approach.
What needs to be determined is to figure out how much space you can spare to
download the packages and this is not very easy to do. Just imagine a package
that will need to create a big new file in its post-install script (think
initrd for a new kernel). You can hardly predict, only to use heuristics.


I agree, but it could be an option (where the user configures the
repos) to choose what method will be used.

Remember that till suse 10.0 that was what was done. Yast first downloaded all, then installed all, then removed or kept (user option) all files.

The point is to reinstate the old behaviour.
