--- Comment #11 from Hans Deragon <[email protected]> ---
Here are some requirements I believe should apply to all OS:

1) Easy GUI to install the application.  Must pass the computer neophyte test.
2) Allow the installation of multiple version of LibreOffice.

#2 is harder.  I could open a new bug report for that one.

As for #1, there is no need to try to support all Linux distributions.  Only
the main ones are required as most distributions are derivatives of the main
ones, which are Suse, Fedora and Debian.  Ubuntu, as a derivative of Debian,
should work if a Debian solution is provided.  Else, since this is still the #1
Desktop distribution and many others famous distribution derive from it
(including Mint), if the Debian solution does not work on Ubuntu, then work
should be done for a working solution on Ubuntu.

For Debian base distribution, would a single meta .deb file do the job?  Click
on the .deb and the OS will show you a nice GUI to install it (at least, that
is what happens on Ubuntu).  The .deb adds the PPA if not already there and
then calls apt-get to another meta .deb which contains all the dependencies
required.
