SlimeyPeteif I've run a command I found on the wiki and it corrupted my system, should I just edit the wiki or should I contact the user who put the command on there and discuss it with them? What's the protocol? :)11:09
cody-somervilleSlimeyPete, ugh11:14
cody-somervilleSlimeyPete, link to the page containing the bad command?11:14

SlimeyPetewell, when I say "corrupted", it removed networkmanager11:17
SlimeyPetewhich wasn't such a big deal for me but would cause serious trouble for a noob11:17
SlimeyPeteI also had some trouble with X afterwards, and had to reconfigure the x-server but I'm not sure if that was a direct result of running the command11:18
SlimeyPete(I'm referring to the Hardy manual command)11:20
SlimeyPeteoh, and it messed with likewise-open too, which resulted in me being removed from our domain.11:21
SlimeyPetebasically I think there should be a warning so that newbies are aware that there's the possibility that the command will remove important parts of the system11:21
cody-somervilleFeel free to add a warning11:25
SlimeyPetek, done11:33
