That's the thing about packaging tools: they have to work 100% reliably, every time, without any error, or they're catastrophic. As Douglas Adams says: "the difference between something that might go wrong and something that cannot possibly go wrong is that when something that cannot possibly go wrong does go wrong, it also turns out to be impossible to get at or fix."
- compsciphd 6y agothe tool did work reliably. the user overrode it its safety check. i.e. imagine I chattr +i libc to prevent it from being removed, and a user chattr -i and rm's the file. whose fault is it? the user who did the action.
