What about using aptdaemon for package installation and configuration? It provide a mechanism for non-privileged users to install packages and answer debconf questions. I use it in python with my isenkram package, where the isenkramd program run as the normal user and talk to aptdaemon using its API. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list Freedombox-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
