NI has been working on updating our Linux device drivers. The first round of updates is now available for download.

Fine that you folks now finally dropped the ugly installer, but you just opened yet another major security risk:

You explicitly disabled package signing *AND* also using unencrypted HTTP transport.

That way, it's pretty trivial to completely take over you user's systems, by injecting malicious packages.

Aha, you're trying to silence it up ? Exactly what I've expected. But it doesn't work - it's already going all around the world.
