Now what ? Should I need to install Fedora package to create a image ?

Aside of that, this image creator is a broken concept by requiring to be 
root. Almost every build system out there (OE, buildroot, LTIB, etc..) 
have learned to create image without the need to be root.

But it seem to be pointless trying to advise peoples that deliberately 
choose to reject anything that have be learned from the past... It's 
pathetic to see that the Megoo article in Slashdot is attached with 
comments that mainly disagree about the package format and the "no 
upstream" distribution. Looooong way to go.
