This also affects apt-get: above a certain number of packages to be
installed at the same time, the installation hangs.

e.g.

    apt-get install pkg1 pkg2 pkg3 ... pkgn

I'm not sure where the cut off is.

However, it's easy to hit the limit and that makes it hard to use
kickstart for setting up a full-blown workstation.

Since it also affects apt-get, that makes it impossible to do a single command 
install after startup.
Breaking it up over several commands works, but introduces problems if one is 
customizing the configurations of packages allong the way.
