thanks,
so maybe it makes more sense to add a 'keep' to this sequence, than to add a
'keep' radio button. Then there's a nice distinction:
- radio buttons signify 'trust level'
- default et al signify what you want to do.
much better I think.
Then the question is only how to call things. Suggestions:
default -> upgrade installed
install -> upgrade all
if this is too long, I'd go for
default -> upgrade
install -> install
reinstall -> reinstall
and add 'keep' and 'remove' of course
I think it would be helpful to have a few lines saying
"Please click on "default" for a category to change which packages are
installed. Select if you want the current or experimental versions. Maybe
you want to open a category to select settings for a particular package.
Then hit 'Next' to start the installation!"
