Sooo folks behind the curtain..is Kubu Precise going to "work"?

Do you know what package I need to install to get Muon's docs when I click on help?

[Teunis]

It seems like they are looking for a volunteer to write it

I've done a clean install of Beta2 with the intention of using just Muon to do the updates.
I've update Muon to most current 1.3.1 to be fair.
The first message I get is
"Not all packages could be marked for upgrade. The available upgrades may require new packages to be installed or removed. Do you want to mark upgrades that may require the installation or removal of additional packages?"

So I select "Mark Upgrades" But when I click "install updates" I get the following error

"Another application seems to be using the package system at this time. You must close all other package managers before you will be able to install or remove any packages."

Recent incarnations of Muon have a 'Full update' button, it'll give you a clear and colour coded overview of changes to be done.
I find it clearer than the Konsole output of apt-get dist-upgrade.

Is this using Muon software centre, Muon package manager or muon update manager?

This was fixed in a post-beta2 update to Muon.

I did not mark upgrades this time, Then just selected system updates not applications. Updated fine. Required restart.
I then did mark upgrades update system and applications and update went perfectly. Restared required. No more updates to do.

All in all I will be using muon for all updates in future. I already use Muon Package Manager all the time for installation of my packages.
Many Thanks Jon for all your work on Muon. Just reading through he Muon blog, very informative.
