Although I rank among the purists, I could go along with this idea:
Two ISO/repo configurations.
One which is free.
The other which works if the first doesn't.
Although I am a purist, I am already compromised by needing to work in CAD/CAM
environments which are only available in Windows, so I recognize a problem in
general.
But I don't want to make it easy for people who could install fine with the free
installation to select the other one "just in case". There is possibly an
opportunity to gather information about what cases don't work with the free
download.
