I have an SRU7.5 installation that I found was missing package entire. I ran

The 57.49 MB value for estimated space above seem very wrong here.
Is there a reason for such a huge value or is this a bug? As you can
see no other packages are to be pulled in here. And indeed executing
the command shows a much smaller payload -
The reason is that pkg consumes space temporarily as part of the update process. That space in included in the estimate of 59.49MB.
