fixed now, drakclub can be run as normal user and display a 'root password'
entry which if filled sets up your urpmi club sources.

I synchronized with the cooker mirrors yesterday, created a new user, logged
into X as that user and went through the drakfirsttime menus.
I was offered to enter my mandrakeclub information, but was also told that I
need to log in as root in order for that information to be added to my urpmi setup.
Fair enough, only root can modify the urpmi setup, but:
1) We don't want to encourage users to log into X as root. We can, however,
prompt them for the root password.
2) With mdkkdm, which is the default dm now, there is no way for users to log
into X as root!
In other words, in the default setup, the mandrakeclub registration dialog
cannot achieve its goal due to lack of root priviledges!
