      After upgrading, the system installs/reinstalls all the packages. During that time lots of %age download figures are logged individually, like:

      Oct 21 15:07:49 	kernel:
      Oct 21 15:07:54 	kernel: 1%
      Oct 21 15:07:56 	kernel:  2%
      Oct 21 15:07:57 	kernel:  3%
      Oct 21 15:07:59 	kernel:  4%
      Oct 21 15:08:00 	kernel:  5%
      Oct 21 15:08:01 	kernel:  6%
      Oct 21 15:08:02 	kernel:  7%
      Oct 21 15:08:03 	kernel:  8%
      Oct 21 15:08:05 	kernel:  9%
      Oct 21 15:08:06 	kernel:  10%
      Oct 21 15:08:14 	kernel:  20%
      Oct 21 15:08:33 	kernel:  30%
      Oct 21 15:08:39 	kernel:  40%
      Oct 21 15:08:45 	kernel:  50%
      Oct 21 15:09:04 	kernel:  60%
      Oct 21 15:09:12 	kernel:  70%
      Oct 21 15:09:16 	kernel:  80%
      Oct 21 15:09:25 	kernel:  90%
      Oct 21 15:09:32 	kernel:  100%
      
      

      Did that used to happen on 2.1.n also?
      Anyway, it is spamming syslog - it should be enough just log the various packages as they start and end install, like it also does:

      Oct 21 15:07:43 	php: rc.bootup: Reinstalling package OpenVPN Client Export Utility
      Oct 21 15:07:45 	php: rc.bootup: Beginning package installation for OpenVPN Client Export Utility .
      
      

      and so on.

      As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."
