I would think that the "average installer" would use the distribution package available for whichever application they're concerned with. And since LedgerSMB is an arch:All package, one could even try downloading the package from the repositories and use that to start the installation, although dependencies would have to be handled manually that way. I haven't tried that on squeeze, though, as I run a local package repository and just reference that.

That's one of the main reasons I started working on the Debian packaging for LedgerSMB; it's much easier (& repeatable) to use the Debian package rather than doing a manual installation (I've done that on Debian test systems but not recently).
