I have installed Lanterne and HAM decided that it would be good to install me transifex-mobile without asking me. I just noticed that when going into apps menu.

How is it possible that HAM is installing random software without the user allowing for it?

I've been having trouble even pulling down an up-to-date package list in HAM over the last few days, so it may be that the extras-devel repository is in a bad state right now...

This has happened to me only once. I never really looked into what happened.

I would assume it's something to do with the repository.

And HAM did it again... I was installing one app and got second for free Then after uninstalling it I got an other during the uninstall proces. Nasty behavior.

I did just as 3 years ago. Left the damn thing in peace and moved to FAPMan.

This were random ones. Just like previously. FAPMan doesn't do things like this - everything goes smooth.
