Yea, installation of programs on linux is not the same as windows as there's always dependencies to figure out.

One of the thing that attracted me to debian over red hat when I first got into linux was debian's package management system apt. It keeps track of all the dependencies, conflicts, etc. I use the package aptitude which is usable in a text console to manage all my packages instead of using apt on the command line. It's worked well for me.

Although, I have yet to switch my desktop to linux though. I don't want to go to win 10, so as windows 7 gets phased out I'll likely will just go linux.
