Absolutely agreed. The Linux user story is quite woefully bad right now.
Ideally we should have binary rpm and/or apt packages. Is creating
distributable binaries that much more difficult in Linux?
I still dream of the day I can go:
sudo apt-get install mapguideopensource-x.y.z
Instead of having to build from source and tremble in fear at gcc's cryptic
compiler error messages :-)
