You've said it there: Arch Linux *users*.

In response to "warning dialogs": Am I the only one that tries to figure out
if clicking "Yes", "No", or "OK" is going to make the program go on without
reading the box? I don't think so. :-)

I can see the use of the script, but I have to say that I think the damage
of a new user not understanding "development" software, and thinking a
program is broken due to them testing a pre-"pre-alpha" far outweighs the
usefulness of the script.

That's not to say that your not allowed to script the process, but don't
share it online. It damages the reputation of the software you've packaged.

Am I totally in the dark here? -Harry
