[LUAU] Fedora Beta 12 - Delta RPMs

[Julian Yap]

I upgraded my work machine from Fedora 8 to Fedora Beta 12...  Uptime since the earthquake or something crazy.

One new feature is Delta RPM's...  It sure saves a ton of bandwidth when updating OpenOffice.

Here's a modified output:
$ sudo yum update
...
Transaction Summary
Upgrade      55 Package(s)

Total download size: 161 M
Downloading Packages:
...
Download delta size: 22 M
...
Finishing rebuild of rpms, from deltarpms
Presto reduced the update size by 86% (from 157 M to 22 M).
