Not something related to packagekit or similar? Eh, IMHO there should be 
something like that if there isn't. With OBS and Co. compiled stuff is not 
that much different, you just get a variant tailored to your (hardware)

Hm. You don't agree that a user experience like
	"Sorry, missing X to do Y. Would you like to get X now for that?"
is better than one à la
	"Na, no way to do Y."?
