Well I would be satisfied with that initially, an installer that just go and executes the other installers in turn. Considering only this meta-installer there is still room for improvement from the basic "install the runtime + pygtk etc". For example, this meta-installer should consider * is there already GTK in the path, and what version * should it install python too * what if the user already has pygtk etc installed * possible more... However, we both recognise that there is much else that could be done, I dont know if anyone else has investigated how much work it is to get rid of the 4 confirmation screens (does setuptools create installers that can be run with no user intervention?) or to combine them all into one in another safer manner.
