Title says it. I dont want this installer to set up a systemd service without asking. I use ollama serve, so the systemd service isn't something i need or want. Upgrading is a pain as a result.

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh <-- need a better way to update

Hi @donuts-are-good, we publish binaries with every release that you can swap in place to update Ollama. Let me know if this helps!

Thanks, however I hope you don't mind a little pushback in the name of UX.

It'd be more useful if that one liner could sense an upgrade like this: check if the binary exists, check if the unit exists - if the binary exists and the unit file doesn't, prompt the user. If neither exists, or if both exists, just continue the way the script has been operating.

@donuts-are-good instead of installing it from the curl bang: use asdf-ollama instead.
