Some of the problem here is that we have discussed this as part of
overall planning for <insert RHEL here> but there are parts of the
conversation I won't send to a public mailing list like this one. We
probably can learn to have this conversation differently next time.

FWIW, I agree with Martin that we need his approach for now, which is
isolated, and can rip it out and switch over to a pure RPM-based one
later. Having RPM in the loader is a clear win for anyone who later
decides to use it for something else. It will also allow us to finally
just install the RPMs (as you say) without doing anything differently
and allow for things like assistive scripts in the RPM too.

Jon.
