+Thierry,
+I guess that you are referring to the section after ********* PLEASE 
+NOTE ********** ?
+If this was in a README.urpmi then users would not see it until after 
+installation. I think that this is something that needs to be explained 
+*before* installation, which is why I added it to the description.
+Someone looking at this in rpmdrake and trying to decide whether or not 
+to install, will be better informed.
