I think a packager is not obliged but he should at least poke the upstream about
that. Of course sending upstream a patch is the best solution.

I don't think this is the best idea, but, as long as it's non-interactive, I
don't mind.

I'll take this review, because I'm interested in keeping this package in Fedora.
I still use it on some servers.
