Installing 8.7 RC1 says "installing update" indefinitely

When I ran "update now" from 8.7 beta 4 to 8.7 RC1, the message in Logos was "installing update" indefinitely. When I shut down the program, I got a dialog box with "a new version is available to install" (or something similar). I suspect that dialog box was hidden all along. This might be a quirk of updating the beta to the release candidate, but it would likely be confusing to a user if it happens during the normal automatic update process.

    Harry,

    Do you have logs from this session? I've not been able to reproduce this. There will be a delay if you had any resource indexing.

    I don't think I have a log on that. I think the issue was that the "a new version is available to install" message box was hidden under the Logos program. So when I finally quit the program, thinking that it had locked up, I saw that message.
