This is indeed an interesting ideal goal, not having looked at this code at
all means I have no idea how doable this is. However, as far as I'm
concerned, even if we still need a bit of OS specific code in apps, having
the autoinstall code in a generic library that others can reuse is already
a good move.

gchar *output = g_strdup_printf("%s.ks", distro) is closer to the initial
code and more readable imo.
