FORMATTING!!!!!!!!!! Your code never gets to the part where is checks for the packages.
what happens is that is fives you the results and breaks out of the switch case. below is your actual code tabbed correctly ("NOTE! how the whole code is included inside your first if on case A.

HERE is the correct structure for the switch follow it and adjust your code.

	return 0;
}



Note the scope of each case and the if statement inside of it!! Hope that helped.
