Hi mr_ped!

I must agree with all you said. Especially two things are important:

The initial setup must be as quick and simple as possible. Maybe a windows-style wizard wouldn't hurt - common Joe programmer is used to click "Next >" very quickly to accept the defaults.
It should be possible to change or re-run the setup later, from within theide. That is related to 1), since Joe just accepted defaults without reading and later he might find that working over svn suits him better.

About the "alien" package selection window: theide recognizes already when it runs for the first time. It should be easy to show a big nice pop-up explaining the basics of packages and assemblies. And probably also something like "Hey, if you want to see what this beast can do, have a look at the X,Y or Z package in examples". Just don't add a picture of a big-eyed paper clip, that would scare most of the people Very Happy

Very Happy

Anything from me required? Smile

As for the opinion, I would like to afford the luxury of not having one.

Personally, whenever I need to work in Linux, I use src tarball to get the first ide, then svn... Smile

Smile

But making the process easy for Joe is fine with me.
