Hi all,<br><br>yesterday, as expected, I got on my desktop the notification that a new release was available. When I launched the upgrade, a window opened with two checkboxes: one for downloading all the packages before starting to install them, and one for something else which I don&#39;t remember right now.<br>

<br>I checked none, but I guess I should have checked the &quot;download first&quot; one. Never mind about this.<br><br>As it was late, and it was going to be a long task, I went to sleep hoping to find my system upgraded in the morning. In the morning I found a small window saying that the installation of 2 packages had failed and buttons to abort or continue. I clicked on continue and the task went on. That window blocked the whole installation during most of the night.<br>
<br>Now I&#39;m at work hoping to find my system upgraded at the end of the day, but I&#39;m afraid that the window waiting for an answer pops up again and blocks my upgrade.<br><br>So I wonder if it would be possible to avoid this situation for the next mayor release (Mageia 3). I can imagine that the initial window could have a third checkbox that users could check to tell the applet (or urpmi, I don&#39;t know which handles this) to continue on errors (just as it they had pressed the Continue button) and show a list of errors at the end; but other solutions might also work.<br>
<br>Well, this is my proposition. What do you people think about it?<br><br><br>Alejandro.<br>
