Thanks! It would be nice to know when pup completes updated by 
confirmation. The possibility that it exited before completion was my 
major concern for confirming.

When pirut contains pup, will it remove the pup package? I tried 
removing pirut and pup. Reinstall pirut, then run pup with no launching 
of pup.

Combining the programs sounds rational.
