I personally do not *want* such a distribution since I am a linux user. I was trying to tell lyx developers that current windows installer is not good enough to attract windows users and suggest that they make the installation process simpler by bundling some tools with lyx. Anyway, it is not possible at this stage to bundle things together. That can happen only after the dependence on mingw and perl are removed. I.e., after configure.m4 is replaced by configure.py.
