As Pascal suggets you can install updates individually. A likely scenario however is that you'd want to install maybe 9/10 updates. In that case just right click on the one you don't want > lock this version. And then hit the "upgrade all packages"-button. Very easy, and you're very much in control at the same time. Don't know if this feedback will somehow find it's way to the devs, but the only things that bother me are: - As with Volker the nasty gtk gui. Works nicely but certainly not pretty - not even for gtk standards. Has almost all the functionality that one would need - only I'd like more search options, particularly with regards to provides/requires issues. - All packages are downloaded before installation - if a download or a package fails everything stops - you can't just skip that one - but have to sort out the issue before you can continue. - Ksmarttray doesn't update the repos I think - I don't seem to get notice of any updates unless I manually update the channels - and that makes ksmarttray pretty useless I think. Don't know if ksmarttray is officially a part of Smart. Would be nice if you could tell it to update certain channels at certain intervals. All of the above is based on 0.41 - will install 0.42 in a few minutes. Nice job maintaining that package Christoph - the devs should be happy to have such a diligent maintainer at a major vendor.
