 Replying to [comment:3 mojca@…]:
 > Here's my suggestion for the patch:

 For every instance of `${workpath}/${distname}`, you can use
 `${worksrcpath}` instead. Also, 755 is the default permissions for
 xinstall, so you can leave off the -m flag off for those.

 If you remove a variant, it’ll simply disappear for users who previously
 had it selected. If you want to make sure that those users still have the
 generated files after upgrading, you could make +tutorial a legacy variant
 that only enables +luaterm.
