No solution has been proposed for those cases in the bash script. Most users of the zsh script are decoupled from the corresponding git version, and since you refused to graduate the scripts out of contrib, that gives distro maintainers the excuse not to automatically package the zsh script. So no, given the current situation, I would rather keep updating them manually. -- Felipe Contreras
