Dave,

Done.  We should probably remove the redundant installation instructions on that page (they are fairly out of date) and include sections in the actual install page for apt/yum/fink/*port packages.  I do think we need these around for sysadmins and non-devs who want something easier to install, but it would be nice to have them somewhere consistently maintained.
