Thanks for the feedback.. I'll have a look in the logs tomorrow.

And yet, I can see a lot of annoyed folk if setup in download mode tried
to download *everything* not present by default. It's easy enough to
tell setup to download everything regardless of local state - click all
categorie's action symbol to redownload, and you are done. Does that
address your concern?
Anyway, I may misunderstand what you meant, so feel free to elaborate or
patch.

Simply use the 'install from internet' mode. It downloads and installs
in one foul swoop.

Thank you, and agreed.
