Apparently, Alexander, you did not read my earlier comments, and
instead just picked on one sentence I wrote in which to debate.

I clearly said that it wasn't so much for the educational standpoint
that I'm against scripting, it is because that is just not that way
we've always done it, and I don't see this package as a reason to
change.

You're comparing a maintainer's installation script/method with
something that we (BLFS developers) come up with. Alexander, this
is night and day. Apples and oranges.

I'm not sure I follow the point of your message, unless it was to
ask why using a maintainer's script is any different than us
writing our own script. In which case I don't even see the
comparison and I cannot see the value in discussing it.
