That doesn't mean it's nice to recursively wget content from a web
server, especially if you're not passing a reasonable --wait flag to
wget and limiting the operation to the packages you're actually

It's not really something which warrants a tutorial. I'd barely call it
instructions:
Extract the contents of the tarball in a directory where devhelp
