I remember when we discussed this previously, we wanted to be able to

framework?
Right now, yes.
Works for me, as we should require a positive action, i.e., add the
module, to enable a distro.
Wouldn't be too hard (the idea for the components is that they are small
and easy to write), but it would take a little perl knowledge, or one of
us would have to write one and send it to the user (potentially
iterating if we don't have access to a system to test on).
If there are ideas for a better way, I'm all ears...
We should *only* have to drop the module into some well-known directory,
e.g., /opt/oscar/lib/OSCAR/OSDetect. IIRC, packman/depman do this.
