See the barking here:

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Update.1_Software_Release_Notes

  "Activities must be installed separately."

And unless my memory is fooling me, I'm pretty sure the warning was red
at some point on this page:

  http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Olpc-upgrade

  "Note that in builds 700 and above, you must install activities
  separately"

It's not that important anyway.  It just occurred to me that the
dependancies management challenge could be somehow dealt with by
delivering a set of default activities.  I'm not aware of any 
software distribution drawing such a strong line between the 
"core system" and the applications/activities.
