RHN updates are very large in volume.

[Panos Tsapralis]

I have recently read in the list other people mentioning that the latest updates 
of XFree86 by Red Hat are very large in volume, because they have been compiled 
with debugging information in them.

This makes it really difficult and time-consuming (not to say, expensive also) 
for us, poor guys with modem connections, to download and install these updates. 
So, I would like to ask whether there is any possibility that Red Hat recompiles 
 these updates and replaces the fat files with thinner ones any time soon.
