It does. It’s just the size of the zip archive.

Since the packages included on the install media retain any source files, it 
could be a useful number. 

However, I can see how it can be useful to figure out the size of the binaries. 
(Something the RBE does so FDIMPLES can display it to users). Maybe someday I 
add support for that in the repo management software. Never enough free time.
