Then don't use setup. Sorry, we can't support nonstandard
installations. There are a lot of things setup can't do, but that
keeps setup small and simple. Once you start doing nonstandard
things, you lose your right to complain.

Actually, I passed it by a UI expert I know, and it passed. If you'd
like to demonstrate your credentials I can compare them to his to see
who I should believe.
