 Replying to [comment:5 jg]:
 > Could you please reverify this in a current joyride?

 build: joyride-1520

 Three activities (Implode, XaoS, and Maze) were downloaded from
 http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities and installed locally.
 (the files were downloaded to a USB drive and copied over to /home/olpc/)

 * The clean installed machine was not able to install any of the three
 activities. (/home/olpc/Activities/ could not be created)

 * One machine upgraded from joyride-1489 using "olpc-update joyride-1520"
 kept the older version of these activities (i.e. installed while running
 1489). It had no problem running Implode and Maze. It could run XaoS but
 wouldn't terminate the program after hitting Ctrl-q. The activity window
 did disappear, but the icon remained flashing "Starting" in the donut for
 about a minute, and the disappeared automatically.

 I tried installing XaoS again with the file just downloaded today, but the
 XaoS directory was not affected at all (judging from the date of the
 files).

 * One machine upgraded from joyride-1489 using "olpc-update --usb" did not
 keep the older version of these activities (i.e. installed while running
 1489), and it was not able to install any of the three activities.
 (/home/olpc/Activities/ could not be created)

 ----

 I suspect that this is due to the wrong mime type of the content bundle
 (#5840?), but I cannot confirm.
