I agree, it doesn't look good to have a button for "copy script" that
includes a line that installs a package after having enabled the repo.
Much less one that does so without asking for confirmation! That line
should be separate.

I think the attached patch achieves that, but
1) it's untested
2) I'm not sure that a "Copy Script" button is really all that useful
for the "apt install" line, so maybe that part of this patch should be
scrapped.
