Yes, this is the one that mean is too complicated - I had written one
that was much simpler.  For example, point 2 in the link above starts
off with

2. From [www.gimp.org] get the recommended versions of the following packages:

    * libintl
    * glib
    * gtk+
    * atk
    * pango

   etc...

This is going to blow 85% of the potential users out of the water.
For my users, who are installing matplotlib, they just want to get in
and get out, and the typical user is much happier with a guide that
says "run these two installers and set this path" than the treatises
which appear in the FAQ.

Which ones?  Do you count the dropline in this batch?  Is there an
"official" installer?  I have installed dropline + pygtk on at least
30 windows computers including 98, 2000, NT, ME and XP, and the only
problems I have ever had are occasionally dealing with some lingering
dlls that previous installs of glade etc left in the system path.
