Hi Willy,
Most Linux distributions use package managers to install, upgrade and remove software. The closest there is to an "All-In-One Installer" are meta-packages (packages without contents) which depend on a group of packages. For example I could imagine that a meta package called "ldraw" (which upon installation would automatically draw in the other packages through its dependencies) could potentially be useful.
How would that help?
Yes, I will do so, once my packages are accepted into Debian proper. This can take another couple of weeks.
cheers, josch
