Why would a blender user type blender? I would expect them to look for blender in the application menu, see that it isn't installed, and then see to get it installed. This kind of feature makes more sense for command-line utilities, IMHO. It would be maybe interesting to integrate it with the Desktop menus though, so that we install the core desktop applications along with the desktop environment's task, and add menu entries for the lesser used applications of that desktop environment. Then, if some user tried to start those, they get automatically installed. Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
