I know that package *installation* is done after reboot. I was thinking that
the *download* was done during shutdown. But it appears that the 'install
and shutdown' dialog button appears only after they have been downloaded.
In other words, they are downloaded while system is running. It seems that
indeed there's no reason for long shutdowns right now. I reenabled the
timeouts now in git.
