Options grayed out after install crashed.

Bug Description

After the install process crashed (more than once - probably killed due to a lack of patience); the next restart of the script posted a warning that previously installed options are grayed out and cannot be deinstalled.

I can usually reproduce it by cancelling out of an install cleanly (eg...hit cancel during install) and then selecting "close" on some kind of window with easyubuntu.in, as its title, that pops up.

I did notice later that the install would end cleanly, after hitting cancel, if I waited patiently (eg...not closing window easyubuntu.in window).

So your bug is on it greying out not completely installed options?

Correct...greying out is the primary concern.

Seems fixed in 3.1, at least to me. If anyone wants to dispute this, then reset this back to confirmed, with additional information.

I just tested using EasyUbuntu_2006-09-05 and the items that are already preinstalled are still grayed out.

Can it maybe have a option to reinstall the compounent ?

I have installed the NVIDIA drivers when I had a FX550 card, but now I have installed the 6600 GT card. I would like the option to reinstall. It might also be helpfull if one of the installed components were broken and needs to be reinstalled.
