<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Thank you Stefan, I will try that.<br>
<br>
Just to clarify, my users are teachers who have to be ready to
teach at set times. Therefore, I want to allow them to install
software when it is convenient.<br>

In this case I would suggest a different way.<br>
<br>
Create a list of available software installable through WPKG and let
the user select from that list.<br>
For each of the selected packages run WPKG with the option to
install it.<br>
<br>
With the latest release of WPKG the package will be updated if the
package on the server updates.<br>
If you happen to add it to the profile applied to the host, it will
no longer have the manually installed flag set and will be removed
when you remove it from the profile.<br>
<br>
With this way you don't have to interrupt each package installation,
but just start WPKG with the packages to be manually installed.<br>
