It should be easy to convert my current shell scripts into TCL and use tclkit to distribute it OR use something like freewrap to create a installation executable.
Of course, almost every OS has /bin/sh (and some sort of
package management) and creating a wrapping around each
individual package management system would be trivial but very time consuming.
Right now I have the frame work for an installation that as about 10 questions and after compiliing your choices comes up with and OpenACS installation page. It would be easy to create pre-compiled packages that work with it (checks would have to be added to make sure libxml, postgres or Oracle is installed, etc) and distribute it that way.
