Then why the checkboxes at all? Individual checkboxes create the impression the
user can choose to install them or not (which is only kind of half true).
Personally, if I know a particular piece of software is stable and works well on
my system, then I don't want to be forced to upgrade when there is a risk of the
upgrade changing some functionality I like, or worse breaking something else I
rely on.
