rpms are installed as root, so they cannot install to the home directory
of the user installing the rpm (except by using rather crude hacks or
relying on a fixed user name). They can also only be installed once, so
on a multi-user system only a single user could ever use your activity.

The system location for activities is /usr/share/sugar/activities.
