 1. That's not a reason to no-package it.
 
 2. No, NO_PACKAGE is not transient.
 
 3. There's not a problem with PACKAGE-ing it. The ftp servers have room.
 I'm concerned about putting the package on the CDROM. That's what NO_CDROM
 is for.
 
 NO_PACKAGE implies NO_CDROM.
 NO_CDROM does not imply NO_PACKAGE.
 
 Why do you want to NO_PACKAGE the klh-10? Is it huge too? (I haven't
 looked at it yet.)
