I have worked (there are a while because it was in GTK)  on a wizard/screen
for dependencies. I've already take a look at what QT can offer us the same
thing but I'm not really sure that I will have the time (and skills) for
doing that. At least, Jonathan or Andy take a look. Anyway, we will need a
wizard for windows and osx....

After, a mix of this two things could be possible. The second doesn't need
a lot of stuff, at least for Blender and Inkscape.
