It is un-useful to say 'use bugzilla' when the only response there is to
CLOSE it as NOTABUG.
It is practically useless to use Bugzilla for proposals like "Everything
Installs without a "Reporter satisfied" type of feature where bugs can
only be closed when the reporter is satisfied with the problem reported.
Bugzilla does not have a customer satisfied feature. Therefore it is
useless for this sort of request.

Amen Jim!! Amen!! No one fixed the udev problem to my satisfaction and I
would like to see that the bug couldn't not be closed until my udev
fired up on boot. Otherwise, why bother? At the Friday 1pm Rah Rah
session, where the week's activities are commented on, someone can say
"I closed 20 bugs!" without fear of confrontation from the boss, since
he never comes into this "high traffic cluttered list" to see who is
zooming who. At least Mr Harald has not closed the udev bugzilla report,
so that's a good guy! :) Ric
Having the reporter assured that the concern is addressed adequately
would make filing a bug report more worthwhile.
Just as Bruno mentioned for upgrading with raid where at least the
updating is done singularly and the raid updated after the installation
is completed. Sure it is possible that a disk might fail when one was
upgrading the system but the time spent in this mode is relatively short.
If the upgrade failed with the singular disk being updated, you would
still have the redundant drive to start over.
I have not used raid so I am probably misunderstanding some of the
aspects for upgrading a system with raid.
To track with the subject line. I am satisfied with the right clicking
on each group in order to select all the additional packages within the
groups. It also makes it easier to go back within the groups and remove
selection of programs that I know I do not want on the system. There are
a lot fewer packages that I do not want compared to what I would not
exclude from the system.
