Please send error reports to the affected parties when executing or
parsing a dak command file fails.

Also please send emails when a DM without proper upload rights set
uploads a package and it is dropped.
Yes, it happened to me and the wireshark package got stuck in the
upload queue for a few hours and then it got
dropped without any email sent to me about the reason.
