That is funny, and true.

But the OpenOcd application is almost always installed correctly and 
from a users point of view there are lots of things that can go wrong 
with OpenOCD even if they are not in the strictes sence OpenOcd problems:

* Drivers for the JTAG interface must be correctly installed and 
correspond to the configuration of the OpenOCD installation.
* Eclipse must be installed with correct scripts and addons to relibly 
make gdb talk to OpenOCD
* The board/target configuratin scripts must be properly setup.
* The application to run on the target and the build configurations must 
be sound

For many users, failure at any of these steps will be interpreted as 
"OpenOCD is not correctly installed" because OpenOCD does not solve 
their problems.

It is up to the OpenOCD community to handle this complexity, and if you 
want OpenOCD to thriwe and grow then "this is not an OpenOCD 
installation problem" is NOT the answer.
