Hi,
if we goes back to an rpm-installer (now the possible with the calamares
internal rpminstaller)
it was this an issue, because by any install it is also possible to
update and
therewith verify it automatical.
And any problem/issue can find and fix directly
and support the bugfixing also directly because all pakets
who not fit, be automatical eye-catching/ flamboyant/ flashy/conspicuously
If the Installer (calamares) recognizes/dedect to be a OMLx System on it
and it exist an system on the harddisk on "/" can it update the ground
system also
via rpm's who be stored on the DVD / and via blueray too ..
so it is also possible a fully distro (i586/i686 and x86_64) store on a
Blueray
and therewith can install and update offline too..
and at last it is checking the dependencies of the rpm's too.
and tell automatical, if all ok. or wrong..
and automatically uncovers the hidden errors / and
uncovers the hidden mistakes automatically
different Distributions use an rpm-install/update too,
because even this problematic/task
and solution of the errors in the distributions ..
best regards
Blacky

I've forgotten a lot of questions I've wanted answered 'cause we
haven't had a meeting for a month or more. Three that have come up
recently are:
1. Users can't update because when Plasma 5.9.3 packages got moved to
main-updates plasma-desktop was left behind in main-testing resulting
in users getting this error:
One package could not be installed,
task-plasma-minimal-5.9.3-1-omv2015.0.noarch (due to the lack of
plasma-desktop-5.9.3-1-omv2015.0.i586)
2. Does OpenMandriva/Calamares support encrypted partitions as part of
install process? Honestly I don't know much about this but when I've
tried it doesn't work.
message: "The installer failed to create file system on partition
/dev/sdc5."
details:
"==========================================================================================\nCommand:
cryptsetup -s 512 --batch-mode --force-password luksFormat
/dev/sdc5\n==========================================================================================\n"
18:14:20 [0]: Calamares will now quit.
3. In Live mode is Calamares supposed to be able to be started more
than once? Currently it won't. If user encounters a problem and
install fails trying to restart Calamares results in a core dump. So
then user has to reboot the .iso.
