There are 3 other LTS stable branches that get releases less often. And then, there are the weekly development -rcs for the next release, that I seldom start tracking long before the release is out. This is just for sources, and it adds up to almost 1GB per week. Adding binaries to the picture grows the entire size by a little bit when it comes to the freesh and planet .debs, and to a larger extent when it comes to gnewsense/yeeloong (that gets one build per source release we put out, with a total deb+tar size about the same size of the source release subdir), and the freed-ora builds (that involve 1-4 rpm builds per active Fedora release per week, each one weighting some 2GB total; for most of the time there are 2 or 3 active releases; sometimes there are 4, depending on whether or not I've already cleaned up the -rc series for the upcoming release that gets built for the rawhide tree). > If size turns out to be a problem, we could choose to keep only LTS > releases on ftp.gnu.org, for instance. Keeping only LTS wouldn't help guix, though, since you're not using an LTS release. --=20 Alexandre Oliva, freedom fighter http://FSFLA.org/~lxoliva/ You must be the change you wish to see in the world. -- Gandhi Be Free! -- http://FSFLA.org/ FSF Latin America board member Free Software Evangelist Red Hat Brazil Compiler Engineer
