Thank you Carlos. That ensures the console installer is used even on a
host with a graphical front-end. Nice catch!

On a related note, I would like to install the Sourcery toolchain to an
existing directory but the installer does not allow this. Is there a way
to override this behavior? I will not use this force the update of a
previous toolchain installation.
