I thought it would surprise users to have a process complete
successfully when one of the packages is not installed or updated.

in 1.95 the function which does update entries has an option that can be
passed to it that makes it warn but not exit on a pkg being
updated/installed and being requested.

It _could_ become an option but I don't think it would become a default.
