I would have thought that it's mainly Windows users that really need
binaries, given the hard time that they have with getting all the
dependencies together.  The unix world has a bit of easy time so
packaging is less critical.  This is just a broad sweeping brush
though...

In terms of packages for each platform, I think if you and the
projects you are associated with need a binary package to help with
distribution of your applications/libraries then you have the "itch to
scratch".   If you have this need then you also will have the
motivation to get the packaging right on your platform, as otherwise
the errors come back right to you.  For this reason I feel doing stuff
that helps yourself directly, rather than just for the greater good
actually produces more reliable results.

So... do you have demand for a Solaris package? :-)

Robert.
