<br><br>Does it works without zenity ?</blockquote><div><br>I forgot to mention that it's just a technology preview and is build against Ubuntu Feisty and strictly depend (now, but in future will default to available dialog widgets) on bash and zenity.

advantage of this one ?</blockquote><div><br>You're right, I started from makeself and build more wrapper around the payload inside the self-extracting to provide more control against the bundle.<br>The advantage will be the builder that I'll release to you to permit generic users to package everithink and to permit developer to build against the bundle.
