Hey again Michael. What you describe in the second section is actually the *fix in operation*. We now filter out any banners for which the corresponding packages are not all available. So, the first time you start up after a cache purge, only Tickr has been verified, and so only the Tickr banner is shown. After you restart, the agent has had its chance to fully update, and the other banners are displayed.

In other words, this bug is fixed by the fact that we will never show a banner for which the packages are not ready. As this condition becomes satified as soon as the agent update is complete, this is not a condition that lasts long (as evidenced by the fact that your next startup showed all of the banners.

So, I'd like to propose that this is in fact verification-done (check the test case, you've verified it it seems to me). Unless you find this behavior unacceptable. It is definitely not a regression, in any case.

What do you think?
