Hi,

The issue (if there actually is an issue there, which is debatable) is
not so much that dak is hard to install (because it's such a beast and
the documentation isn't exactly stellar) but rather that dak is very
Debian-specific and using it outside Debian without replicating the
Debian infrastructure and workflow requires a lot of work and patching.

Put another way, dak may not be the tool you're looking for in the first
place.
