Another approach is that there's a default menu everyone gets, and they don't see newly-installed software at all until they install it themselves (which may just add the menu item if the RPM is already installed). In many environments probably users can't cause RPMs to be installed as the system is centrally managed, they can only edit menus in effect. But the menu editing might look like "add/remove software" to the user. Havoc
