No - Linux isn't broken to begin with. Such a installer tool is not needed.

Every distro I've used (and several I haven't) comes with good package
management and Apache/PHP and a database (usually MySQL) available as
standard.

If you're still having problems then tell everybody which distro you're
using (a Linux newsgroup might be a better bet) and explain why its not
working for you.

CENTOS 4 has LAMPP complete on the install disks, many others it is
partly with the missiing parts in the on-line repositories (depends on
the distro philosopy on whether to include the varying licenses of
LAMPPs parts) you may have to add them via thier web methods (APT, YUM,
etc.)

What you need to do is ask yourself if you are installing a server or a
development (and other use) workstation, that probably would determine
your distro need, then look to see what is included in the distros that
fit your needs. (i.e. the servers are CENTOS, the desktop/devlopment
tool is Ubuntu)
