Have had an issue a couple of times when updates for 'The Elements' have been released. Sure, it's a huge app, the download is 1.7GB, but I repeatedly get problems when trying to install those updates.
I generally try to run with about 500M-1G free on my iPad, and obviously that doesn't allow installation of the new version if the update mechanism requires that the new version be installed before the old version is deleted. However, I deleted items to get up to 2GB free, and still got the error "Not enough space to install". Then I deleted the app from my iPad, giving nearly 4G free, and I'm still getting "Not enough space to install". How much extra space over and above the app filesize is needed to update?
