Agreed. I am weighing my desire to test MBSE against the work required to
edit the setup procedure. I tried the MBSE install on a fresh install of
Ubuntu v15.10. After the creation of user "mbse" and group
"bbs" the install scipt (Run as root) generated a multitude of
errors. Mostly related to directory and file creation. The the script ended
indicating that the intsall had completed successfully.  
Sadly, I see no point in continuing the testing process.
