Does anyone know of an existing solution by which to install software from the source, in a user-friendly package (similar to Apple's Installer application)? I have some scientific libraries I want to wrap in an end-user package, but for performance reasons it's really quite important that the package be compiled on the end user's machine, to allow for present and future optimizations. I'm not aware of any such existing systems - have I missed something?

Fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) supports installing a package from source, but it is open-sourced and mostly command line based. Please be more specific as to your needs, and the licensing of the software you want to install. You could also bring it up on the Fink Devel mailing list ( email@hidden ), you can probably get a better answer there.

Cheers,
