	While in principle I agree with these two points, I would suggest
that you help Fabien creating this install script for him. Sounds that it
would be more useful than flamming  :-)
	By the way, any executable should not start with uppercase letter,
which is otherwise very annoying. I would adopt the same rule for the
package name as well.
