Thank, Travis, for confirming this. I searched Bugzilla but didn't find
anything. Gosh, from what I read here it wasn't considered a blocker
for 1.0. Geesh, with all the emphasis the devs placed on this updates
feature one would think it would be more important. Call me cynical,
but I guess since it only affects Linux users it isn't considered
important enough to fix. It sure is an annoying nuisance not knowing
what is checked or unchecked. <rolling eyes>
