and because Windows does not have a proper package management system, so it is not possible for the installer to know what you do or don't have. The solution would be for the installer to also install ImageMagick if it is possible to check whether it is already present before doing so. > As far as autopano is concerned, there is a name conflict here with > autopano by A.

In terms of software deployment in general Windows is a pain because of the lack of package manager. You should really give Kubuntu a try. There is, of course, a learning curve, but I think you'll be delighted. Yuv
