I'd be more in favor of a simple, broad view of what the user should be able to do without root. It's possible "install packages" would be on that list, it's possible not. That way packages could ask themselves "does this break the policy?" If it doesn't, great. If it does, time for a bug report. Better then a review process because then everyone would generally know what to expect. -Mike -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
