Problem
In Distribution and Patch settings > General settings > Notification it's possible to customize the behaviour of the distribution process when a user interaction is required but there a no response time out occurs.
In the section No response timeout options, it's possible to set up the distribution to automatically defer install until machine locked.
However, this option is actually delaying the package installation for the time set in the timeout setting below, rather than deferring it until the machine is locked.
Using that option, when the timeout is reached, the package installation will start, even though the machine is not locked.
