Iced Almond Soy Ubuntu, No Foam
So I installed Fedora 17 in a VM and noticed presto does a pretty good job of reducing the need for downloading updated rpms. Debian do something similar with pdiffs for package list updates, and there's debdelta-upgrade for downloading deb deltas.
Why does Ubuntu not have this yet?
There was some work done in 2011: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDebdeltaSupport but the linked UDS meeting page is 404: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/meeti...ns-o-debdelta/
