Creating a package will be hard for any distribution because Desura downloads all needed files to working directory. This could be bypassed if Desura binary checks if it has a privileges to save files in current directory and if not then user can select new directory (~/.desura can be default). Path to it may be saved for example in ~/.config/desura
In this way, we can easily create a packages for all distributions and users will still be able to install Desura in any folder that they want
On my ArchLinux with GnomeShell everything (apart from what happens after login :P) works great. I just had to install libjpeg6 from AUR
