That's a good question. One possibility is that the dialogues timed out
after a while, but I'm guessing you were watching the process and that
didn't happen. Another possibility is that the packages that require
those fonts were somehow not part of the upgrade the second time
around. It would depend on the starting position, I guess, and what
packages needed upgrading.

But it's a good question :-)

BTW, "user error" isn't an insult around here, it's just a literal
description of the root cause of a lot of problems.

Personally, I have never been wrong. I thought I was once, but I was
mistaken.

Regards, K.
