Assuming it would trigger on _available_ updates (and not only when |
| 18 |
the actual upgrade is about to be performed) the relevant notice would |
| 19 |
be shown at --sync and --pretend time, no? Then the user has the |
| 20 |
opportunity to delay the update until he's prepared for the change, I |
| 21 |
wouldn't call that last-minute. |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 29 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
