It's a perfectly valid way to list commands that need to be run as root when you're writing a tutorial

a cut-and-paste list of commands is not a tutorial, it´s an excercise in absurdity. A tutorial would say "run this upgrade script" and point to a download link for such script, along with any needed screenshots of the before and after.
The curse of the linux world are the "cut and paste blobs".
In this case the procedure is a handful of lines long, but I´ve seen blobs spanning a full screen or two. *now I get off my soapbox*
