Create a bug report for it. I don't think that Walter realizes what's
standard. And this whole problem probably stems from the fact that he can't
put symlinks in the zip file that he generates, so he was talking about making
it up to the maintainers to create the various symlinks, which IMHO is
unacceptable long term, but it seems to require either changing the main
release from a zip to something like 7zip or breaking it up per OS like a
number of people have been asking for for ages. Regardless, the fact that the
installer and rpm and whatnot are broken is unacceptable.

It already is broken up per OS:

As for creating the installers and rpms, here are the scripts that do it:
