I refer the developers to my comments in 44102.
The ordinary user of 1.x could use a universal installer in any variant of
linux.  The ordinary user of 2.x had to struggle with .rpm files instead.  44102
was allegedly "fixed" by adding facilities to the build method which were of no
use at all to ordinary users trying to download from the web site, as none of
the extra facilities mentioned in the alleged "fix" of 44102 made it to the
downloadable versions.  Only the .rpms continued to be offered in .tar.gz form
[1].  

I stand by the idea of re-instating something like the universal installer for
ordinary users of Linux.  Read most of 44102 to see why.

[1] Perhaps the title of this issue should be "give users back the universal
installer"?
