There's a lag time between these things. Problems don't get fixed instantly (not a criticism) but others who want to install a given system will decide very quickly not to bother if Google returns no useful results when things don't work out of the box. Hence both are appropriate - the answer is not always "file a bug" without mention.
And some people won't even look on Google if things don't work. File bugs first, provide workarounds second. In the time you've been contributing to this thread you could have at least half of those filed (and in the time I have, I might have one of them fixed)
