It's good idea to dump stdout of all commands to file, and print only
user-friendly messages. Log file always can be watched by tail -f
foo.log by nerds such as I am. :)

In attachement there is my last version of script. Please, take from it
what you find useful. For the moment where compilation of OM begins it
is tested and work OK. I did not managed to compile OM because of
insufficient RAM (i have only 1GB). Now I'm trying with swap, but it is
horribly slow. 
When I'm back from holidays I'll take a look at JIRA and submit my
changes directly to it. I'm going to wonderful place, where there is no
Internet and no computers.

Please take a special look on 'checkinstall' part.
