Because dpkg -i *.deb is esssentialy setup.exe.

That would be true if, and only if there was _one_ deb to install, in
which gdeb would by used, not dpkg.

Don't tell me anyone using Windows must not know setup.exe to install
software?

Out in the world of Joe Sixpack, autoexec.run on the CD/DVD/BluRay is
the program that installs software.

There is no goddamn need for it.

By that token, there in no need for _any_ program, on any os, other than
emacs.

(That Ubuntu people in 90% of cases have no clue how they do basic
system tasks doesn't make it more needed)

That lack of knowledge makes it imperative that that how to install the
files be included.  If that includes an explanation of how to use dpkg,
so be it.

To do otherwise is to alienate the program from those that are dipping
in the world of FLOSS.
