Installation is not a good idea because there are multiple alternative
package managers in Emacs. Some of them explicitly require user to add
code into init.el (I am referring to straight.el).

However, we may, indeed, show some helpful warning/message.

A reasonable place to implement such message is org-load-modules-maybe.
It might catch the relevant errors and show the message.

Patches are welcome!
