The main idea behind gnuhealth_install is to be able to install the
system in any OS, and be "independent" from packages and versions. I
wrote the installer to avoid installation issues coming from different
distros and Operating Systems. Of course, this is a starting point
with the installer, so we'll be polishing with time :-)

Be our guest ! Any distro can package GNU Health in the way it fits
them best. Additionally the end user will have the choice of using the
gnu health installer and have everything under $HOME.
