Comment 2 for bug 183209

No activity on this bug for the last month, although bug is milestoned for alpha 5...

Maybe we should clarify what the reason was for the change that introduced the usability regression.
Could someone who knows, why this was changed, explain the reason for that?

When doing an update with synaptic package manager, the install window (with the tty output) still has the behaviour as the one from update-manager used to have.

One could argue, that if one wants to read the tty output, he can do the upgrades via synaptic package manager. Newbies who do not want to see tty go with update-manager. But this is not a valid argument IMHO, because update-manager provides a list of changes for the packages, which synaptic does not AFAIK. And, if it is assumed that no one will read the tty-output, why having the option to show it at all?
And why should the two install windows from synaptic and update-manager, that do exactly the same thing, have different behaviour?

So please, if there was no real important reason for the change, can it just be reverted?
