Linux Mint Update Manager - Pause

Post by rjs »

Hello,

Any chance that a pause could be added to the "Downloading Package Files" menu of the LinuxMint Update Manager?
Right now it's only cancel, but there are a few scenarios that would benefit from a "pause" (sleep/resume) function.

Just another idea...

As long as the packages get downloaded (and not yet installed), you can break it and if you apply the update later again the download will continue, where you did the break; what is already on your computer, does not get downloaded another time. So this could be clarified in the GUI, but no change is needed.
