I remember that. I had neglected to make sure that the transaction dep
resolution was called before we ran the transaction. That was a long
time ago - I think in the 2.3.X series or so. anyway I know that has
been fixed :)
The feature sounds great for allowing another front-end program to
utilize the shell features. I hope the GUI installer / updating
front-end programs can take advantage of this. They probably already do
to some degree. They are not just groughy user approved yet.
I dunno. I know pup lets you select the stuff you want to do, though.
good luck,
