Hello. :)

Me too.
Does it helps to make a brief activity diagram to show the task flux?

Here, simplified, in text and linealized:

1. See the list.
2. There is a notice about new packages.
 a. Wanna see them?
   1. If no, let's keep in the list.
   2. If yes, go to new list (only upgradable)

In the ugradable list:
1. mark some or none.
2. upgrade or...
3. ... go to the full list.

Thanks for your effort... :)
