Hello,
I was using some of the package commands and the error codes are not
changing. I can understand how one could say that the commands completed
and there was no error. Any suggestions on how developers using (sh,
bash, csh, Beanshell, php.... and the versions of exec in each of those
languages) gets more detailed completion status. Consider the following
uninstall, install, install sequence.

Nothing to install in this image (is this package already installed?)

For example the grep command returns different status depending on the
results of the grep.
