+# Known limitations of this installer:
+# * This really only installs the command line version of the program. To
+#   install GUI support there are extra packages needed that I can't easily
+#   test right now (should be installable via yum as a temp workaround):
+#   libgtk-x11-2.0.so libgdk-x11-2.0.so libatk-1.0.so libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so
+#   Those libraries appear to be provided by: pango gdk-pixbuf2 gtk2
+#
+# * There are two popular environment variables that can be set, but vary from
+#   place to place, so future enhancement maybe to support STATATMP and TMPDIR.
+#
+# * I haven't tested any installer version but 15.

+    # The installation scripts aren't really necessary:
+    # ./install is a shell script that sets up the environment.
+    # ./unix/linux64/setrwxp is a shell script that ensures permissions.
+    # ./unix/linux64/inst2 is the actual installation script.
+    #
+    # 1. There is a markfile that is the version number. Stata uses this for
+    # for doing version checks/updates.
+    # echo $(date) > installed.150
+    #
+    # 2. Then it extracts the tar.gz files: ado.taz base.taz bins.taz docs.taz
+    #
+    # 3. It copies installer scripts to root directory
+    # cp ./unix/linux64/setrwxp setrwxp
+    # cp ./unix/linux64/inst2 inst2
+    #
+    # 4. Then it checks for proper permissions:
+    # chmod 750 setrwxp inst2
+    # ./setrwxp now
+    #
+    # 5. The last step has to be run manually since it is an interactive binary
+    # for configuring the license key. Load the module and run:
+    # $ stinit
