The text of the 'Pratibha Application Set' page on the the 'App Center' site is inconsistent with the actual downloaded/installed packages.
It installs 230 MB of packages while only stating 150 MB on the site page. Fails to list some (or perhaps all) of the additional packages making up the extra 80 MB.

I'm about 95% sure that is the download size listed - not the install size.

Jeff is correct here the Download size is the size of the bod file (as reported by firefox) and it is correct. The applications listed are also mostly correct as far as I can determine. For some reason Midori is a dependency of this package but that is installed by default on Bodhi and hence not listed. Nor is midori found in the bod file, bod files are created assuming the packages installed by default on Bodhi have not been removed. Otherwise these offline installers would have to include hundreds of extra deb files.

ah, I follow now. I misinterpreted the Synaptic feed back as to indicate a discrepancy. In fact I misunderstood how terms were being applied.

NOTE: You're correct Jeff. I just started a download of the Pratibha suite and it listed 151 MB.
