Aloha,

Setup has the annoying habit of pausing a download/install to deliver
information that isn't necessary until the run is complete.

This often makes the install take much longer.  Would be nice if you
could walk away and come back later to a completed install -- this
has become unlikely on subsequent runs that add more packages.


Richard
