+<PRE>I just had a call for help from a friend who used the Sytem Update applet to 
+update his Mandriva 2010.2 install and ended up with an un-usable machine, KDE 
+crashing when opening a session.
+
+ Never having used the System Upgrade applet before, I was surprised to see 
+that it only requires the user password to launch a system update, in Mageia 
+as well as in Mandriva.
+
+I ended up installing Mageia 1 on his box, but I wonder why does the 
+distribution allow the user to potentially hose his system, when it requires 
+the root password to install a prog ?
+
+Would it not make more sense to ask for the root password for the updates ?
+
+Cheers,
+ 
+Ron.
+
+PS User has been warned against updating in the future ! 
+And as he is worried about his system going down when I am not available to 
+help, I am going to make a new partition, and put in it another install of a 
+different version of the distribution, just in case.
