FOr rpm distro : rpfind.net.. Rpm distro comes with Add Remove. .Open SUSE -> Yast , Mandriva -> URPMI, Fedora ->

,deb Based Distro -> Synaptic in nearly all of 'em.

Just type the name of the s/w in The adove Add/remove Programs and install them

Apart from that you can try Click N Run. Also the best way is to compile..
Code:
./configure
make 
make install

Search this section, there was a post probably by Satish S on how to install softwares for major distros and compiling from source.

Is it only me who finds the current thread and Linux Source Code contradictory?
