Mike,
Removing Tiki Packages would be very disruptive to all the community members that are using it.
I use that feature on dozens of sites, and it works fine.
I suggest you find a developer to work with you and figure out why it's not working for you. Please note that there is a web-based option and the documented manual install fallback. Once you figure it out, please add a better error message for unsupported platforms.
Best regards,
Marc
