Do you mean AIR runtime, or AIR SDK ?

Ahh, interesting, because I was starting to work on an PPA for Ubuntu users 
that would correctly install AIR and it's dependencies and then the existing 
installer; think of it as the apache-flex-sdk-installer-installer. This would 
solve a lot of pain points for Ubuntu users, and the same thing would work for 
.rpm systems too.

Now I am wondering that as the GUI installer is just a fairly thin wrapper 
around a licence agreement, some file fetches and batch scripts, weather I 
shouldn't just skip installing the installer and just create a package that 
fetches and runs the files and scripts (from the same XML config file the AIR 
app uses) ?
AIR isn't required for *using* the SDK one it is built, right ?
