If you want to test it out you can cd data; sudo python mockpup.py I'll move to having a real binary later this week - along with makefiles and spec for test releases. > The storyboard seems to indicate that the most compelling use case is > the one currently fulfilled by up2date/rhn-applet, where a user is > notified that an update is available for software that he or she already > has installed, and allows them to install the updates in a 'batch'.

Not with pup itself.

We may endup with reusable parts such as progress bars and callbacks, but the installation interface is distinct from updates.
