But then every child in Uruguay (plus other deployments that withhold
root from their users) would hate you 'cause they wouldn't be able to
install activities anymore.  A solution that results in a significant
percentage of Sugar's users not being able to download activities
anymore is not a solution.

If we could switch to .rpm *and* find a good way to install .rpms
without being root, though, that would be pretty compelling.

Thanks,
