Let's continue this discussion:

The PACKAGE_ADDED broadcast is not received by the installed (added)
package anymore (SDK 0.9).

This was the only way to let an application to execute a piece of code
when it is installed on the phone.

This feature is especially important when an application is
reinstalled. Our app needs a service to be running. We use
BOOT_COMPLETED event to start the service when the device boots up.

As expected, Android kills the service before an app is reinstalled.
But in SDK 0.9, there is no way to start the service after the new
version of the app is installed. I hope this will be addressed in 1.0.
