Uwe, this is exactly our concern. chkconfig.ltx should not be misused for
convenience of Windows (or any other single OS's) users, as long as these
"convenience" hacks affect other platforms as well.
Here is a simple plan: in chkconfig.ltx add the line
\InputIfFileExists{instpkg.ltx}{\message{^^J\prefix reading file
intpkg.ltx}}{}
and then move all the useless tests (some grepping should allow to make
the list) to a new file instpkg.ltx which is not in the lib/ git
directory, but is packaged by by the windows installer.
There a a few details to handle:
* make sure that the \input@path is correct and that latex can find the file
* maybe rename instpkg.ltx to a better name like pkg-dist.ltx or
whatever seems nice
* create the list of the convenience \TestPackage calls.
What do you think about this? It is just a stopgap measure until someone
finally implements this properly in the installer.
