Its a horrible idea., because it makes it that much easier for random inexperienced users to create mind-numbingly simple ways to create scripts that breaks other inexperienced users systems. For ever one of these scripts which will be provided by a reputable maintainer there will be a vast array of such scripts sitting in random-joe-user's personal blog or "help site" which hasn't seen a shred of testing by anyone else and willy-nilly enabled a array of repositories with conflicting update paths causing updating problems for any user who happens to find that random script on the web. What happens when stanton writes his yumex installer script which makes slightly different but conflicting choices than the dries script? What happens with atrpms adds yet another script which again makes slightly different but conflicting choices? And the poor user attempts to use all 3 because they each cover unique functionality? -jef"Can wait to add pathelogical yumex install scripts to his repository webpage of pathelogical packages of doom repository"spaleta -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
