by install or setup files i meant wholesome setup files that dont come with nagging dependency requests
and if am not wrong the packages u refered to works only with debian
i tried out for efax and it has something about 10 dependencies , this is the main reason that drives out new users from adopting lin
ideally installers should be like that which comes for RealPlayer or mozilla firefox, which uses a simple GUI like in win and completes the installation by placing icons on the desktop or atleast lists itself in the respective program group.
