I can see the use of the script, but I have to say that I think the damage of a new user not understanding "development" software, and thinking a program is broken due to them testing a pre-"pre-alpha" far outweighs the usefulness of the script.
That's not to say that your not allowed to script the process, but don't share it online. It damages the reputation of the software you've packaged.

You can rest assured that Arch Linux users don't bother about
"distributions". Software is only "packaged" because it's a necessary
step to maintain a record and system sanity. You can't really refer to
our packaging and compare it to, say, Fedora's packaging. We "package"
almost everything, even our own custom, personal scripts.
