"I'm shocked, shocked... well not that shocked... " It is the curse of all out-of-band package managers... where eventually some lamer shows up to ruin the fun

  The is the intersection of "user friendly" and "self installed." It exists anywhere this is tried. The entire idea that 'postinstall' or 'preinstall' or any sort of _script_ needs to run after you've fetched a package of what should be /interpreted/ code is completely insane on any "modern" desktop OS. From what I can tell the main use case is avoiding the problems from users who cannot figure out how to set an environment variable or reliably run a subshell.
