In QT it works perfectly, as it just open release notes, but progress is still updated and any issue is properly reported with popup showing on top of release notes. In ncurses it is worse. Opening release notes blocks whole installation process. So it does not just stop updating UI, but it also does not install at all. So reading release notes is bad idea. Question is how to proceed here? The simple proposal I have is to simply not show release notes button in ncurses as majority of local users use qt and for remote ones, there are many other ways how to entertain or read release notes outside of installation process. But of course I welcome any other suggestions.
