You understood my oblique sysinstall reference... The 'can't do it in one release' is a red herring. The current package system is by no means as good as sysinstall was before it was replaced. The new one is much better and deserves a shot of 'replace in one' if it proves to be ready. Anything contrary to that is just obstructionism.
