Subject: Setting force will also force success reports
In the default shell, if you set s conf force 1 before installing a distribution, it will also report success if you have reports enabled. This *might* be somewhat logical, but most probably is not intended. Jost

Hmm, good point... the 'send fail report' is only triggered when an install actually fails.. which it doesn't with force in effect... Think you can define a better heuristic? This shoudl be quite patchable. Cc'ing this to barbie, he usually has some good insights on these matters
