Excuse me if my question is a bit dummy... But I always wonder why all package managers can't refresh their indexes on-demand.
For example, when I do "apt-get install something", why it can't verify if my indexes are up to date and then refresh only if necessary?
It's the same for pacman, yum, ...

Oh, that. Yeah, I remember that. I was being too lazy to get my ass a gravatar that month. Didn't have the guy in my current gravatar filling in for me at work yet. :D
so we have this system; it listens in on every single phone call that passes through the call center floor and looks for triggers. If the employee is becoming irate, customer, if either of them curse, it can even look for phrases like an opening and closing message. All real time. The company is owned by the owners of my company, so we're a test bed for when a new version comes out
mind you, we're talking in excess of over 500 employees this thing is listening in on
so, we had to go update the call center in one of our remote offices with the new software (re: we're a test bed) and they never tested the install program before they gave it to us apparently
we get to the office, install it on 40 pc's, install went fine. logged into the system and nothing.
takes about 1 hour to do all 40 stations this way (2 hours the old way)
because they started doing it with an install program now instead of building the image into a thin client, us ghosting that thin client and reimaging them all, something was missing from the install package we came to find out
@HopelessN00b keeps talking about a-cups and @JoelESalas is getting offended - not sure if we're talking about women or men, its to f'ing hot in here but not hot enough to turn on air conditioning and i need a smoke but i just had one :(
