Thanks!
which repo?


> git clone https://git-tails.immerda.ch/liveusb-creator
> sudo apt-get install python-distutils-extra python3-distutils-extra
> sudo python setup.py install
> sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/tails-installer
> sudo cp -R data/* /usr/local/share/tails-installer/
> sudo tails-installer


this last one is not necessary, with ./tails-installer is enough.

Done.

Done.

I have implemented another option:
Showing an alert message when the install button or the reinstall link
are pressed, without selecting the ISO image file, if that option is chosen.

Yes sure, it works for me, it only is shown when the USB stick already
has tails installed. Send me please a screenshot when this happens to you.

Great :)
