Complicated is relative.  If you don't understand how it works, it's best
to research.  There
are many guides a google search away.

IRC can be helpful for support, but being interactive you're assuming that
someone is standing by
waiting for you to ask a question - which may or may not be the case.  IRC
is more functional for online
meetings and group discussions.  Mailing lists, forums, bugzilla, etc. are
better for support and investigation of issues.
