This I also agree with as well. If the scripts fit for everyone. 
However, there is no sense making installing LibreOffice (the downloaded 
files) sound so complicated for Linux. You don't really need to know 
much about installing .deb's or .rpm's other than to "right-click" and 
the files and picking the right choices. That's all.

In fact, if you are just installing one .deb or .rpm, on most systems, 
you just have to double-click on the .deb or .rpm file and it will call 
up the distro's installer. It's just that simple. Just like it is done 
on Windows.

Cheers,

Marc
