Description of problem:
After a fresh install of Fedora 3, running "yum update" requires at
least 1.5 GBytes of free disk space. This causes problems with older
machines that have small system partitions.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fresh install of Fedora 3, "custom", "all packages" 
2. run "yum -y update"
3. yum downloads updated rpm headers, rpm packages, computes stuff,
then fails with "package xxx needs yyy MBytes in /".

    

Actual Results:  Critical security updates are not installed.


Expected Results:  yum should install packages in batches, disk space
permitting.
