"without an installer"? This package *is* an installer!
Then the package should probably be named "folding-installer".
Ugly package names suck. They don't fit in the first column of dpkg
output. Worse, they're required, to be the name of the directory in
/var/lib/ if the package needs to make one. "/var/lib/folding" is great,
but "/var/lib/folding-installer" is terrible.
Of course, some packages (I count 12) do follow the installer-suffix
form. I'd like to avoid it if at all permissible.
