How is pulling the entire image because of this acceptable in any way? Slap a fat warning on the site if you want, but don't throw off people's schedule by doing this.
Nah, I’m fine with this. This is the translation of the installer. It’s literally the first thing a new user sees. This cannot remain available for download.
