This can be also be applied to Fedora and other linux distros. What I suggest 
is include a default package installation for all default Linux distro. 

Another problem: I cannot use Debian to send Debian RFP/BTS, because I cannot 
connect now to the Internet (only, at work).

And voilà.

This is very good and I am going to include in my Debian computer (if I can 
install offlinely all the packages and drivers  and connect it to the 
Internet). But I would prefer a general solution (common) for Linux.

Perhaps, we can use PackageIt (http://www.freedesktop.org ). So, using the same 
tool, one can install a package in Debian, Fedora and so on.

I like Synaptic because one can use it in Debian (apt), Fedora (rpm)... This is 
the idea under PackageIt also.

So, one of them could be connected (link) to Nautilus.
