Comment (by kcrisman):
> Well. It will install the spkg even if the user answers "I don't want to
install this SPKG" instead of "n", but that's not soooooooooooo bad `:-P`
LOL
> Thanks for this patch ! `:-)`
Indeed, this is a great solution, thanks for intervening here, Jeroen.
(It does say something about trying experimental when you download such
things, but of course Nathann's point is well-taken about people perhaps
not knowing just how experimental that is.)
