Re: [wpkg-users] skip client run
The separate ping package idea is an acceptable way of doing this. Thanks! - wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users

Cheers Sebastian Ctrl+Q allows to abort the WPKG client, but this is troublesome, since you might just break during an installation, which leaves the system in an unstable state. In general silent installers are hard to abort. One way would be to always include one package initially, that does nothing but "ping -n 11 localhost", which results in a ten second delay. The package could have the name "Press Crtl+Q to abort WPKG", which would be displayed, if the WPKG client is used and WPKG is started with the /sendStatus command line switch. -- Stefan P.
