I think you've hit the nail on the head, if someone gave you their copy
it wouldn't work because of the dependencies :) Trust me, while this
might seem like a problem, Linux before package management sucked,
because for the most part you didn't know that you needed that
dependency (especially for different versions of libraries). These are
also the issues that distributions address, it is a pain in the ass to
come up with all of the libraries to make everything be happy together -
something I'm willing to pay $40 for :)
I'd recommend downloading RedCarpet from Ximian (www.ximian.com). It
does a really nice job if downloading all of the files you need to
satisfy a dependency chain. It will work with most distributions and
download files from that distribution. It might suck for dial-up
though.
Good luck,
Ted
