Yes, "we" as a profession right software and have responsibilities. Get
over it. It's what dev servers, uat, backups and dr are for...
I see no relation between this and packaging other than that any
packaging story needs to support privtae distribution servers.
When the server administrator is already freaked out about adding an
script developed by in-house employee, what about adding an external
module?
Then he's a muppet, plain and simple. If he's not, then he will have
tested the whole setup before hand and got signoff from the developers
and users who are responsbile for doing so.
All of this has very little to do with packaging.
