That's tha problem. I don't want to start a discussion about SRU here, but in 
this case (like many others) delta upgrades would help.
It's crazy that this must wait for another cycle just because the 1 file is in 
a huge package.

Like I said, Debian is suffering from this disease too (no inc. upgrades, and 
own slaves of their strict policy) - Ubuntu should do better.
AFAIK Suse (since 9.3) and Mandrive use delta rpms, and they work fine.

but that's another story.
