There are a few pages in this wiki referring to this subject. In the Linux community everyone has its own idea of what he likes the best, some only wants it easy and others want to know everything and do everything byte by byte themselves. Beside that, there are many so called distributions which have their own rules of how programms should be installed. That makes it harder to write an installation guide suitable for everyone. What we can do is point you to the available pages and you pick the one which suites you best.
