Using microcore + X*.tcz..

When using the apps audit gui, I see four extension to be updated gtk2, gtk2-dev, libwnck and libwnck-dev. Selecting just one of the extensions, libwnck and clicking on "update selected", libwnck is downloaded (deps openssl-0.9.8, gtk2) and glibc_apps, which does not appear to be a recursive dep?

Note:
--- Code: ---$ cat /tmp/apps_upd.lst
Updating libwnck.tcz OK
Checking dependencies:
Fetching required dependency: glibc_apps.tcz OK
Fetching required dependency: gcc.tcz
--- End code ---

roberts:
Could not reproduce. Worked as expected:

--- Code: ---tc@dev:~$ cat /tmp/apps_upd.lst
Updating libwnck.tcz OK
Checking dependencies:
tc@dev:~$ ls -l  /mnt/sdb1/testing/optional/upgrade/
total 124
-rw-------    1 tc       staff       114688 Apr  7 22:00 libwnck.tcz
-rw-r--r--    1 tc       staff           26 Apr  9 05:44 libwnck.tcz.dep
-rw-r--r--    1 tc       staff           45 Apr  9 05:44 libwnck.tcz.md5.txt

--- End code ---

Juanito:
Hmm - perhaps my lousy internet connection, I'll try again tomorrow

vinnie:
if I start HD / USB install from control panel, appears and disappears quickly a black terminal window.
From what i understand tc-install.sh is a command line installer and tc-install is a gui version, but i can find this second command on tinycore but not in microcore.
