Screenshots look cool, nice to see the Normal/Maximal information.
However, I don't know if a better word could be used now that
non-experts see this. How about "Extended"?

I think the UI for this needs some work (note, I haven't tried the gtk1
version yet). It doesn't explain exactly what has happened, and we got
flamed a bit on [EMAIL PROTECTED] for trashing someone's smb.conf because
they didn't know what to do.

I haven't used it much, since 'urpmi.update updates;urpmi --auto-select
- --auto --updates' normally works ok from cron.daily ...

But, for the cause, I am running Mandrake Update now.

Using as example, samba-server which I am updating to 2.2.7-2.1mdk on a
9.0 box.

It click "inspect" and it shows my /etc/samba/smb.conf and
/etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmsave, whereas shouldn't it be using
/etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmnew (since this file is %config(noreplace)). I
have a /etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmsave from a previous uninstall, which
might be confusing it (bug?).

It might be nice if above the text fields, it would say something like:
"Your original file /etc/samba/smb.conf will be kept by default, unless
you choose to use the file /etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmnew instead"
in the case of noreplace, or

"Your original file /etc/samba/smb.conf replace by the new file by
default, unless you choose to keep the file by clicking ...."
in the case of replace.
