Ok. I don't really see the end-user benefit, but don't object either.

etc_postinstall should be:
1) a static public const member of Script.
2) called ETCPostinstall. (Leading capital for statics).
3) reused in RunFindVisitor.

run_package_scripts cries our for a helper class IMO.

i.e. ScriptRunner with 
a) constructor
b) destructor
c) run(std::vector<Script> const &) method.
d) operator () (Script const &aScript) method.

this:
for (std::vector<Script>::iterator script = scripts.begin();
+       script != scripts.end();
+       ++script) 

then becomes
*this = for_each (scripts.begin(), scripts.end(), *this);

This is looking very good, and nearly ready to apply.

Cheers,
Rob
