For Windows, there is the ability to install in a silent mode, which is simply to install without a GUI or without prompting the user for any information. Silent installs are also supported on Linux (and other *NIX platforms) along with a console mode that will prompt the user for information on the console.

For many users, a silent installation works fine. You are basically just accepting the default values and letting it install. For those on Linux who are a little pickier, the console install can be used to ask the user just about anything, including license agreements and the like. 0-]

Damon, is it also possible to run InstallJammer when installing on the
target platform in a non-GUI fashion ?

Would be nicer to have a port file (macports.org), like the .deb
packages you are building.

Oliver, I disagree. I think you are confusing "install in non-GUI way"
with "having someone else distribute Scmbug". I agree it would be nice
to install in a non-GUI way. Let's focus on that.

Who needs an GUI-Installer on a server platform :-) ?

    Absolutely.  InstallJammer installers can be built FOR any

few users who only build Windows installers but build them on Linux
from cronjobs or automated scripts. 0-]

Oliver, they are planning installers for Mac OS X.
