Huh? Fire up gnome-packagekit or Apper, choose your app, make 2 or 3 clicks 
(install, apply, confirm dependencies if any), enter your root password and 
the app is there. How do you propose making this any easier?

I don't understand all this app store hype. Our repository system gives you 
the same advantages while being much sounder technically (automatic 
dependency resolution instead of bundling everything).
