I'm not looking at the size of the rpms, I'm looking at installed sizes
as reported by rpm -q --qf "%{SIZE}\n" -p <rpm>.
# rpm -q --qf '%{SIZE}\n' -p development/i386/ogre-1.2.5-1.fc7.i386.rpm
29476134
# rpm -q --qf '%{SIZE}\n' -p 6/i386/ogre-1.2.2-2.p1.fc6.i386.rpm
6374746
I installed ogre on my devel system however and the total installed size
appears to be about 8476 KB. So perhaps a bug in rpm's size calculation?
Perhaps, or maybe rpm is showing the size of all subpackages together?
