Good idea. I used  epm (www.epmhome.org) to create installers for different 
platforms. 

Supports AIX, Debian GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Mac OS X, NetBSD, 
OpenBSD, Red Hat Linux, Slackware Linux, Solaris, and Tru64 UNIX

Basic trick is to define dependencies (per platform) and files to install per 
platform in a epm.list, than do epm epm.list, the program will find out which 
platfom you are running on. It will even sort out the architecture (which can 
be a pain in the ass as I found out because debian uses x86_64 and amd64 in 
situations, and then refuses to install on amd64 because the package is defined 
for x86_x64).
