From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Description of problem: I would like to request that the DVD ISO image be split into either one ISO for the RPMS and one for the SRPMS, or have one for the RPMS and one with RPMS+SRPMS. It seems to me that more people will just want the RPMS, and that would save ~2GB per download for Red Hat and mirrors. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Not really an anaconda problem, but I am not sure where to put this
Does this really outweigh the convenience factor of having one disc that has everything, though?
You guys will have to answer that--you pay for the bandwidth. That is why I suggested the RPMS disc as well as the RPMS+SRPMS. I agree that it is convenient to have a RPMS+SRPMS disc. That is the one that I will download. However, I would venture to guess that most people only download the RPM isos (and only use the RPM isos). My concern is simply for the bandwidth of Red Hat and it's mirrors. I know that if I had the option, I would prefer to have both available so that those who do not need the SRPMS are not downloading an extra 2GB every download.
This was done with FC3.
