At this time, @installed tends to trigger unsolvable blockers during |
| 9 |
updates [1], so it's not really usable for general purpose updates |
| 10 |
unless you want users to go back to the days of solving blocker by |
| 11 |
themselves even though the package manager is capable of doing it |
| 12 |
automatically. |

Also, @installed pulls in slot atoms just for the installed slots, so it |
| 15 |
won't pull in new slots like un-slotted atoms would. |
