What you want is InstallAnywhere. It allows you to target multiple platforms with one installer project. It will help with dependencies and platform specific issues.

I've used it on LINUX/BSD/Windows deployment, and it worked beautifully. If you had X-windows, you got a GUI, if not a command line install. Windows installer worked with standard windows installer tech, and looked like a professional installer. It supports mac OS X as well. I highly recommend this software it does exactly what you want.
