Thanks to DJ for the install script. 
No thanks Hekal ;-)
You should prob. take this out the script.
# Installing binary of obliterate
ln -s /usr/local/bin/obliterate /bin/
chmod 755 /bin/obliterate
It is not really permitted to install new stuff (Additions in /bin). I know i did at a point, but that was only a temporary workaround, until i got the StartupScript running.
BTW you already installed it in /usr/local/bin and that makes installing it in /bin unneccesary.
I would suggest this.
#! /bin/sh -v
# Copying program to local
cp -r ../obliterate0.4 /usr/local/
chmod -R 755 /usr/local/obliterate0.4
# Creating /usr/local/bin (if it doesn't exist)
mkdir /usr/local/bin
# Linking obliterate to /usr/local/bin
ln -s /usr/local/obliterate0.4/obliterate /usr/local/bin/
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/obliterate
# Creating man directories
mkdir /usr/local/share
mkdir /usr/local/share/man
mkdir /usr/local/share/man/man8
# Installing man pages
cp ./obliterate.8 /usr/local/share/man/man8
chmod -R 755 /usr/local/share/man
It is a little more according the (unwritten) rules. Though not perfect.
