I wonder: Could part of the problem be from this policy of releasing
monolithic updates in the first place? After all, the whole point of
RPM is to provide for gradual updates of a system. How feasible would
it be for new rpms of packages to be released on a continual basis and
new CD "snapshots" of the current packages released, say, quarterly?
