Is it possible to make a deltaiso without having both the older ISO and
the Newer ISO on a local system.

Example. Fedora-14-Alpha-x86_64-Live.iso was downloaded. A
Fedora-14-Alpha-2-x86_64-Live.iso is availible for download.

Can a deltaiso be made without downloading the newer ISO?


makedeltaiso Fedora-14-Alpha-x86_64-Live.iso
http://path/to/folder/containing/Fedora-14-Alpha-2-x86_64-Live.iso deltaiso

No. Makedeltaiso doesn't understand web links, only local files.

Too bad. The delta concept, both rpm and ISO, is very useful and
functions very well IMO.

Perhaps added in the future as an enhancement? :-)
