As for installation, once Ales releases the next rev (coming very

Python-based GUI which manages the ./configure && make && make install
process for all the usual tools (not just gEDA/gaf).




I'd say Gentoo Linux is the best at doing this kind of thing. We have ebuilds written which work great to automate this stuff.

By the way, who is the Python based GUI for? Shouldn't Linux users rely on their distribution to make RPMs, debs, ebuilds, etc..? Gentoo certainly won't be using it. And I can't see Debian or Fedora using it either since they are binary distros. Seems like the Python-based GUI is for 0.1% of the Linux population.
