If I'm uninstalling 15 packages, how do I know ho much space I'm going
to free? Do I have to write in the paper the space before marking the
packages to be removed, then after marking them for removal, finally
make a diff??

Please read all the bug comments / clarifications :) this enhancement
request is not about "out of disk space" alert; it is about reporting
the total of bytes your going to install / remove. Now that total
bytes is showed when the installation step is already started (really
when starting to download the packages).

Other package management tools show the disk variation: SMART and
Synaptics, if I'm not wrong...

I like the way YaST works now: it warns you if you are running out of
disc space.

Yast used to show % disk space usage at the bottom left of the window but
somewhere along the way it was left out and nobody noticed until now.

If we can work out exactly how we would like disk space to be freed or used, to be displayed, we can add to the enhancement request and stand more chance of getting it implemented.
