        You are not disagreeing with him, David. You are just talking about another
scenario other than the one under discussion.

        He was talking about the case where root is small. This whole discussion
was about how softupdates behaves in the subcase of small root partitions.

        If you have a 1.8Gb root partition that also includes /var and /usr, this
whole discussion is irrelevant.
