I don't plan to use .deb at all (only an idea, that you could put some
batch files in a dir (fdinst, and have the install prog exec those on
install). It would all be normal .zip, but with the option of having
install scripts... (That would be nice I think) There would be an option
to exec/not-exec those ofcourse...
