      Hey guys, any idea how I can look into this more?

      GUI shows:
      –---
      http://puu.sh/eZFKT/0bf0846c18.png
      –---
      Packages are currently being reinstalled in the background.

      Do not make changes in the GUI until this is complete.

      It's been this way over 5 minutes, network's up though. darkstat is down in the 'services status' pane in dashboard.

        Hopefully the package reinstall has finished by now. If not, then go to Diagnostics->Backup/Restore and press the "Clear Package Lock" button. Then look in the logs for error messages about what went wrong during the package install. Then (re)install your packages.

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