A sound alternative is to configure an Apache virtual host to proxy the repo or mirror and then install/update from that. It will download needed updates first time they're called for, then serve them off the mirror. I was going to say you'll need to clean it up from time to time, but then again it's not likely to use more than 1 Gb of disk.... -- Cheers John
