http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55653 --- Comment #22 from rens <rens.groenewegen@xs4all.nl> --- "Nobody should download and run random scripts from the internet as root." That's about the only thing that's agreed here. I describe precisely on it's page what it does. That it MIGHT work on tested distro's but no guarantees. And I advice ppl to NOT use it if thats too scary, as it needs root permissions. So all in all, its not very random. However, Your arrogance did not allow you to check if your statements had any base in reality. For the rest, presenting your opinion as fact does not make it fact. the only thing damaged here is your ego, apparently. dont worry. its a common problem for grandstanders like you. have a nice day.
Thank you.
Oh, come on, your install script just obviously damaged someones system by doing stupid thing and tried to blame it on the distribution's decisions wit shome snarky comment about that being a stupid decision.
And my comment about `tar` was more about using non-POSIX options. Sure, a `tar` might be foud, but it might be busybox tar and not gnu tar.
Also, looking at your install scripts, they have way more problems then that. For example, not using shebangs (does it work in just any shell?), not working from a user directory with spaces in its path, copious use of sudo in a script started by a systemd service (which, btw, is also not mandated by any standard), etc...
So, you can try to claim some sort of seniority as long as you want. I don't care, and it doesn't matter. But unless you fix your stuff, I'd still advise anyone strongly against using it.
And my main point still stands: Nobody should download and run random scripts from the internet as root.
