A 'lot' is a bit of an exageration. It seems our binary packages are
quite popular, please check the download stats (apprently they have been
fixed as of late on SF :)). So getting our packagers to include them
would be a great step forward. Also, providing a separate package for
the folks that insist to build from source (under Support Files), would
solve the problem for most of the other users.

Cool, all of this should work just fine. Now we need to get someone
to maintain this package...
