Hi.
I just modified wpkg a bit. Now packages can have an attribute notify 
which prevents wpkg, if set to "true", to notify the user that it 
installs software. Additionally I introduced the value of "always" to 
the execute attribute. If set it just acts like execute="once", but does 
not check if the package is already installed.

The whole patch can be usefull for configs like this:

    <package
        id="time"
        name="Time Synchonization"
        revision="1"
        reboot="false"
        priority="100"
        notify="false"
        execute="always">

        <install cmd="net time \\timeserver /set /yes" />

    </package>

The patch is attached.
