>From my experience of using apt-get in Ubuntu, I was able to arrive at the following conclusion. Don't know if its correct. But I think this is the reason.

Small packages are downloaded and installed without confirmation. -- Sin Cera, Bhargav Prasanna _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
