There seems to be one last bug: in Expert mode you are allowed to 
choose xelatex (no option for xetex), although the the XeTeX files are 
removed or not installed yet. So i-Installer changes 
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/fmtutil.cnf to be in the end:

     127 # XeTeX formats
     128 #! xetex                xetex           -               
*xetex.ini
     129 xelatex         xetex           language.dat    *xelatex.ini

In Expert mode while doing a Configure & Install no XeTeX format should 
be shown as a format choice.


i-Installer writes into the Subprocess Output:

	### tex.configure: System wide configuration, TL2005-style.
	### tex.configure: Started...
	### tex.configure: Detected tl2004-type structure.
	### tex.configure: Files may have been added during install, the index 
needs updating. Please wait....

which can't be true, because I use TL2005 since some weeks. Is there a 
reason why upper-case and lower-case characters are used for the TeX 
Live abbreviations?
