Thanks for the heads up. IMO that is terrible news though. I
personally hate package-based installers (big fan ofhttp://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/

It makes perfect sense for me... Things like the installer in Windows,
RPM, etc. have gotten so many people to accept that software must be
installed with installers rather than drag-and-drop, to the point
where many users don't know how to do a drag-and-drop installation
anymore. I (not Chronos, but me personally) have actually received
complaints before because I made some software available without an
installer, with the expectation that people would know how to do a
drag-and-drop install.
But now we're going OT, so if anyone wants to reply, then please do so
off-list...
