A newbie will probably learn how to use rpm to deal with this issue, I would presume.

Sorry, I do not run rpm based distro myself, but I would imagine "rpm -i" (if -i is the "install" subcommand, I dunno) would take more than one package name on the command line to be told to install all of them at once?
