Yeah ... I forgot about that ... well you can imagine that it takes a shitload more time on Window$ than installing stuff on Linux.
H_TeXMeX_H:
I just installed Fedora Core 5 and the script doesn't work anymore ... it gives me these errors in connection to the tail and tar commands:
tail: cannot open `+21' for reading: No such file or directory
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Are the environment variables screwed ? How do I fix it ? :(
H_TeXMeX_H:
I've found out a bit more ...

The tail problem has been located, tail will not work with +/-
if its compiled with NLS and linked to glibc 2.3.3 (it checks posix
version to invalidate old style options).
A global fix for this is in the works... no need to go sedit on makefiles.

Don't get it, I'm a nube to all this scripting stuff.
Does this mean you've fixed it then?

What installers on which Windows version?
I've never had to reboot after installing software on any modern (post 2k) OS unless it requires special drivers.

Install any software, and it'll ask you to reboot. Dunno why, probably because the people who wrote the installer software were retards, and were writing for retards.
Then there's DirectX and other shit which will tell you you HAVE TO reboot and not give you a cancel/later option. What's next? A 1 second timer so you can save your work?
When something's already loaded in RAM, updating it can bring bad news. So you update it before the system starts, after a reboot... That's the only time you should need to reboot for installing software, really.

There's a bug in the setup and a fix is in the works.
