Thanks. So, conceptually it will be necessary that the user reads the
description before pressing install. With your explanation, it makes
sense. May I propose two possibilities?

A) If the whole information about the software is just one page with several 
distinct sections, links that would scroll the whole page to each section could 
be added on top. 
They could be like an index at the beginning of the page, Wikipedia style:
   1. Description
   2. Select add-ons
   3. Licence and price
   4. Install
   5. Version and support
Or a horizontal row on top, always visible:
   Description | Select add-ons | Licence and price | Install | Version and 
support

B) Instead of counting on users to see the "choose your addons" section on 
their scrolling towards the install button, make selection mandatory.
When there are addons to choose, you could put checkboxes next to each, but 
also a checkbox for "Don't install any addon". Then, you leave all unchecked by 
default, and you make it mandatory that at least one is checked for allowing 
installation. If the user presses install, and all checkboxes remain unchecked, 
user will be prompted to addon selection.
