Linux standards, is it time?

Hello,

To paint a picture you want to download a piece of software for your linux system and in most cases you are faced with different styles of installers, one for each flavor of linux, is it time to get around to making a standard that every system sticks with?

CNR (Click’n’Run) made a very good attempt at making an install system that can be used on any system but it will never really work unless all of the different creators all sit down and agree that it will be the standard that they will all use.

I have always stood by linux but time after time when i try to cover people problems involved with installing software always in the end puts them off using it.
