I actually don't know how our installer works that well, so I am going
to leave the issue of whether to default to `--fallback` is the right
decision to somebody else.

However, for anybody reading this: does our installer dump logs
anywhere? That seems like a more useful bit of information so we can
triage and possibily fix why you are not receiving substitutes.
