Ok, I did not dare to change a lot of things, overall in other sections.
I like the idea of imitating Fedora and making it easier.

Ok, much clear in this way (and independent of software packages).
Again, good idea.

Ok, that tool is more complete, I will try.

The next version will include all of this.

Thank you
