[tex-live] install-tl redownloads everything on each run

[Philip Taylor]

Yaroslav -- I don't know whether the TeX Live installer really downloads everything again (I suspect it does not), but to avoid the problem completely you could use "rsynch" for the download phase ("rsync" is most definitely incremental) and then install from the local mirror that "rsync" will create.
