yes, and the patch does more than its description says, because it
removes also the command line options from the executable but i
doesn't remove them from the man page

I'd rather remove from the patch the hunk that removes the command
line options because they don't trigger the popup, a user may want to
use them (I don't) and by not deleting them we diverge less from
upstream
I'd keep the chunk that disables the popup
