That's why I asked you do test this with your TeXLive installation.
If we identify the problem of beeing only a problem in xdvi, the we
should write this in the warning.
Some people still use older distributions. Two of my laptops run tetex,
as does my work machine. Who knows how many people are still running the
last Ubuntu LTS. What does that have? My main concern would be that we
don't really know who uses what.
Perhaps the warning could be (a) rephrased to make it sound less dire
and (b) given a "don't show again" box.
