Perhaps I'm missing something, but: > Start Time: 2009-10-04T10:54:49 > End Time: 2009-10-04T11:04:40 and > Start Time: 2009-10-04T11:04:43 > End Time: 2009-10-04T11:14:21 Look like non-overlapping uninstalls to me. The first finished at 11:04:40 and the second started at 11:04:43. I don't know that AI/DC/gui have explicit safeguards about invoking pkg concurrently but I'm pretty sure they don't do that (though we should check just to make 100% sure). Cheers, -- Glenn
