My current tests are still the same. With GUI, Kepler in trunk can identify
missing modules and download needed modules through user interaction. In
command line, it will show WARNING message about missing modules and can
execute with '-force' option.

In many cases, users use command line because they cannot open a GUI, such as
when running Kepler on a remote machine. So ideally, users should be able to
install missing modules only via command line interaction, like install some
linux packages. It means we need a command like keplerModuleManager.sh to
interact with users. After having this command, we can think how to integrate
it with kepler.sh so users will be promoted with missing modules WARNING
message and can interact to install those modules.

Postpone it to Kepler 2.5.
