I closed that ticket marking it as "wontfix", the dmg should be kept
as a one click solution for those accepting the default configuration.
I'd love it if you could write the Wiki entry on installing from

liked quite a bit, we could mimic it) is completely gone, I think, and
we have nothing to offer to unacquainted newcomers.
