This was discussed on-list, but PackageManager downloads
files to /tmp, but never removes them. Documentation
should at least mention this, perhaps also on the MacPython
page.

I will add this information to the pythonmac.org wiki as well.

Closed as 'won't fix' because PackageManager is no longer maintained and was
dropped from the 2.5 tree.
