There's no reason to attack me personally. It's not even your hack, and the fact remains the install is rather confusing.
First, I looked for a separate installer, and didn't find it. It is buried three levels deep (root/groups/tools) and it's not named install.php. I'm not sure why it exists anyway, since all it does is create the database tables that should typically be done in the product.xml 'install' section. An external installer is usually reserved for multi-step installs that require user input.
Second, a big part of the reason I missed it is the instructions told me I was done:
"Now upload the files. and you're good to go (after running adding the product ofcourse)."
I took that to mean I needed to load the product.xml file, and that was it. To put another, critical line after that all but guarantees people will not see it. It's not like this is my first install. I write hacks.
So, back off, dude.
