Post-install script for dapper drake

[rightcoast]

I worked on this one a while. I hoped to have it done for the release of the 6.06 final Dapper Drake, but I don't have much free time and it ran a little long. Hope it's useful to you guys, and it helped me out after my install. It was bug free for me, but I didn't install a couple things like pan. I'll put it up somewhere else eventually, but for now here it is. If anyone notices something wrong let me know. It can install over 50 of the most used packages. Be warned, some are non-free (as in speech). Namely the new Java binary.

Cut and paste the script into your text editor, and save it as something like new_install.sh (anything with a .sh extension) and run it from the bash prompt with:

sh new_install.sh

#!/bin/bash
# this script is based largely on a deprecated script that can be found at 
# http://mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu

[Kareeser]

It sounds very close to the Automatix script, which loads similar programs. Automatix is mostly automated, though.

[rightcoast]

Yep, it accomplishes the same thing in the end, Freenode #Ubuntu vs. Ubuntu Forums Automatix vs. EasyUbuntu aside. I just felt like doing some scripting, and it's easy to customize if I feel like adding something. Most importantly it is easy to run outside of a graphical environment or from across the network via ssh without forwarding X, which is actually the main reason I use it.

95% of dentists agree ... EasyUbuntu over this script 6 out of 7 days a week for 95% of Ubuntu users 95% of the time.
