(20K) media-plugins/vdr-skinelchi/files/vdr-skinelchi-0.1.1_pre2-vdr-1.5.5-getfont.diff

I'm reporting this bug since repoman issued a warning about a file bigger than 20KiB.

Big files should be moved to mirrors, or otherwise stored outside the main cvs tree, since the cvs/rsync tree is downloaded by all users, whether they'll use your package or not.

Thank you,
Diego
