The process can fail in a lot of places, so having a script to blindly go ahead
is dangerous.

I would personally always use a script like this as a sequence of commands
to be run by hand.
If something happens in the middle of the steps, I have to solve it manually
(e.g. removing some external rpm in case of dep problems).

Hmm, I now see there is a "set -e" at the beginning.
Still a little scary. :-)
