The install-tl script doesn't seem to display help when it is invoked
with --help after a failed installation
Thanks for the report. Unfortunately I don't think there is any good
way to really solve it, since there's no way to detect what is or isn't
present when the download didn't succeed. I did put in a fallback so
that the program at least won't try to execute normally if --help was
given, no matter what, although I don't think that is actually what was
happening your case ... sad but true.
Best,
(another) Karl
