dialog4ports prints some errors under certain circumstances.
Those errors are lost when printed.
IMO, this should be fixed in the framework.

You might say "But everything works fine! Why do we need to fix this?"
Maybe it does fail somewhere, and it just passes because the errors aren't propagated.

Anyway, my opinion is that framework should be fixed and report errors in cases when dialog4ports fails with nonzero code and prints errors.
