#10105: [package_daemon] leaves packages inactivated --------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: diver | Owner: bonefish Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Servers/package_daemon | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All --------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by bonefish): All installation methods (manual, pkgman, HaikuDepot) work the same in this respect. When you request the installation/activation of something, all or nothing will be activated. I also don't think it would be a good idea, when the user requests `pkgman foo` and something fails, that the end result is that the requested "foo" is not activated, but stuff that wasn't requested is. For the manual installation it would certainly make some sense to try to be more user friendly. E.g. popping up a dialog with more options -- select which of the pending packages to activate, or move them out again -- would be a possibility. ATM that isn't a priority, though. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/10105#comment:6> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
