But this should be fixed in rpmdrake/MandrakeUpdate anyway. Just because the user wants to install packages manually, doesn't mean he should be forced to watch them. So, we could solve this and other problems if MandrakeUpdate/rpmdrake had an option when downloading packages to do so in the background (ie download all packages in one quiet window, and pop up when all packages are downloaded). Before gc tell my I suck again, I haven't used recent rpmdrake, so maybe it does this already.
