Honestly, I've never seen anything so ridiculous. How is one to know that in order to get one program to work you have to install 28 others. I'm not trying to be a smart ass here, but seriously - No where in any documentation I've read does it say I need to install all these other packages. Would it just not be simpler to add them to the original package, and then check whether or not it's installed - if not, install it. Or at the very least include all the packages needed and the user can install them if need be. By the way, I never saw Marks post - it might have saved me some time if I had though.
Complain to the author(s) of the scripts. GD doesn't need bcmath, that script does. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
