Then don't use setup.  Sorry, we can't support nonstandard
installations.  There are a lot of things setup can't do, but that
keeps setup small and simple.  Once you start doing nonstandard

Actually, I passed it by a UI expert I know, and it passed.  If you'd
like to demonstrate your credentials I can compare them to his to see
who I should believe.
