It won't be "a lot", but will probably be "more than one".
I'm happy to use tools like sed/awk/etc but I don't really want to install
anything else onto the boxes that I don't need except for the installation.
I've been playing with Hamachi:

.. on my Raspberry Pi and the install script has massive dependencies
(build-essentials amongst other things) just for the install script to run,
where all it uses is the "install" function to copy a file and change its
permissions in one go. I've written my own installer that gets around it and
it's made me very determined not to have to install things that I only need
for the installation process.
