I too would advocate for a "batteries included" model. The philosophy taken 
by Calibre etc. of including all dependencies in a one click installer that 
just works.

This is the simplest thing that could possibly work and would enable all of 
the dicking around be done by the packager, not the user. Compatibility 
between versions of Qt, Python, OS and Leo should not be a matter for users 
to sort out. It would eliminate breakage due to upgrades to systems and 
would provide a much smoother experience for the less technically oriented.
