I think I have the patch but it was in Download I thought and I don't think it
is that it won't update zlib (although you might be seeing a different problem)
but I think it is not updating whatever is the last package I select for update
and then only if I am doing an install from local directory - it seems to
download it and install from the internet just fine - I've been trying to debug
it but my skills are beginner at best.
The other couple of things I've noticed are cosmetic and personal and
definitely not show stoppers although I really don't like that if I select the
Test option that all the packages that don't have a test show up as uninstall
as opposed to keep. Also cosmetically speaking I think if I am doing an
Install from Local directory and the Source file does not exist I should not
have and option for the Source to be installed.
