Other moders pack his own stuff and any dependency mod that they have used together in one archive.

If you miss that info and only unpack his stuff you end up with broken mod install. Some pack only his own stuff and inform you somewhere that you also need some dependency. You need to understand first how various moder pack his stuff in archive. It is also true that you first need to understand what is ziped archive and what ordinary folder. Anyone is welcome to counter-point, but I'm done, so please lets not turn this into a CKAN shouting match or flame war.ДЄs any tool, you need to learn how to properly use it. THIS has been MY biggest issue with CKAN.ДЄnd, PLEASE, I stated my opinion on CKAN vs a simple manual install AS FAR AS BEGINNING USERS go. If you understand basic folder structure, and how to extract archive files (.zips/.rars), its like a 15 min learning curve and you are done.

Its SOOOO simple and easy to learn how to do a manual install. CKAN may be a great tool, HOWEVER, as illustrated in the latest CKAN situation, its not really good advice to suggest CKAN as an alternative to understanding basic manual mod installation.
