I don't know how many others are like me, but for me this creates
awkwardness (I dual-boot my G1G1 between a "public will see this"
build (e.g., Update.1) and a "development" build (e.g., Joyride).
My problem is that I customize the builds I use -- that takes time.
So it is not practical for me to install *every* Joyride build
that comes along.
But Activities in /usr/share/activities seem to take precedence over
same-name Activities in /home/olpc/Activities. Suppose a new
Joyride supplies an Activity in /usr/share/activities that
supersedes the one I have. At the moment I don't have a procedure
whereby I myself can replace just that one Activity there (if I
don't want to install that whole new Joyride). [I *have* worked out
how to replace individual Activities in /home/olpc/Activities.]
Would (as root) just unzipping a copy of the new .xo file into
/usr/share/activities work for me ? [I believe the XO keeps a
"registry" of Activities -- would that need updating also ?]
Thanks in advance for assistance, mikus
