Just to get some experience, I used Apper to update my 12.1. I did not run 
12.1 for a few weeks, so more than 100 updates. After that I reviewed my 
installation and installed a lot of packages (> 50). I have about 10 
repositories to choose from. In fact I have two issues, but not something that 
is broken. These issues are:
1. When I expect that nothing needs to be downloaded, Apper is downloading for 
several minutes. This is annoying, but not broken.
2. There is nothing reported during download. Only installation shows detailed 
information.
