Julian:  How is progress with porting "install.sh" to other environments?
I believe it would be a helpful addition to non-Redhat sites.

In February I sent you a demonstration variant of "install.sh"; I'm happy
to continue work on this if you wish, but it would be nice to know whether
you would consider it.

Is there any reason to deny non-Redhat users the benefits and fail-safe
aspects of "install.sh"?

Best wishes.
