install.sh broken

[ohnonot]

I've been using hostsblock on archlinux, installed via aur, no major problems.
today i tried to install it on ubuntu, "the easy way".

basically everything failed.

1. it seems the group hostsblock already existed on my computer, and the installation failed.
   so i exited the script and created user & group hostsblock manually, then re-ran install.sh.
   however, $HOMEDIR is defined only if user hostsblock does not exist yet! the script later happily (and silently) installed config files into the root directory /.

2. even worse, $DESTDIR is not checked for being an existing directory, only making sure it's not zero length, but that twice. why not use [ -d "$d" ] && [ -w "$d" ] here???
   i must have accidenatlly input some garbage, because the script then happily (and silently) installed executables into the root directory /.

frankly, considering that hostsblock itself is a bash script, i am appalled.

Thanks for letting me know. Give the latest git version a try.

Should be resolved by f073880
