I do not want to flame you, but are you new to Linux ?

The best installer to date is RPM, which is a universal installer program for 
Linux and most Unixes. Coming back to InstallShield would hurt most of us. 
RPM has many graphical frontends : Kpackage, etc...

Packages can be downloaded from the Internet at http://www.rpmfind.net. All 
important GNU softwares have been turned into packages. Kdevelop has options 
to generate RPM packages automatically.

That's the power of Linux : newbies do not need to compile. Experts neither.

Best regards,
jean-Michl
