This is correct. All Microsoft packages seem to exit with status 194 if they think a reboot is required; i.e., if they would otherwise reboot the system but you passed a switch telling them not to.
This is by observation, by the way. It is documented nowhere that I can find. But it applies to every Microsoft update I have ever tried, regardless of packaging technology. So we added .reboot-on to let us detect this exit status and reboot the system as appropriate. (Yes, all these reboots are supposedly unnecessary thanks to "qchain", but I do not trust qchain.) As usual, the documentation lags the implementation. Sorry... - Pat "Steven D.
