The idea is NOT to provide incremental updates. i.e. drpms will always upgrade some version to latest. You should never need to install several drpms to reach "latest" state. I am thinking it would be best to provide at least 2 drpms n-1 => n (previous to latest) and General Availability (FC6 isos) => latest If this gets popular, we might provide n-2 => n drpms for slow updaters <div>On 3/11/07, Warren Togami <<a href="mailto:wtogami@redhat.com">wtogami@redhat.com </a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Horst H. von Brand wrote: >> If that same person had the yum-deltarpm plugin enabled, they would only >> have to download 638 MB.

The existing full RPM on mirrors would not change. yum-deltarpm allows more rapid acquisition a desired RPM, if the specific transition you want is available as a drpm file. The common cases would be provided in drpm. If you are doing something uncommon, then you likely will just download the full RPMS like you would today.
