sugar-install-bundle doesn't work with content bundles (build 802)

[Philipp Kocher]

Hi all,

For a deployment without a schoolserver I needed a script to install 
bundles (.xo and .xol) from a USB flash drive. I wanted to use the 
script for initial installation of bundles, installing upgrades and 
reinstall by mistake erased activities. I know the option with the 
customization.zip, but I don't want to reboot.

To call sugar-install-bundles in a script seemed to be a good solution:

for i in ${USB_BUNDLES_DIR}/*.xo*; do
	sugar-install-bundle $i
done

But I faced to problems:
1. sugar-install-bundle doesn't support installing content/library bundles
2. sugar-install-bundle doesn't support upgrading from an old version of 
a bundle to a newer one

So I wrote a version of sugar-install-bundle that solves these two 
problems (see attachment).

It is slow, but it works.

Best regards,
Philipp
