Because when the boot file is coming quite a lot out-of-date the boot
process will be as slow as before and one might think that something is
broken. One could even check for simple replaces (last number of a
shared lib has changed) and rerun the ordering process...
But no problem with me if you don't want, since I am installing this on
my personal laptop I have added the cron job myself.

The last time anybody made a list of the top hundred
character attributes of New Yorkers, common sense snuck in
at number 79. ....
When it's fall in New York, the air smells as if someone's
been frying goats in it, and if you are keen to breathe the
best plan is to open a window and stick your head in a
building.
