Description

Because PiCam needs to run omxplayer and needs to use the VT switch to reset the X interface it needs to run as a privileged app.

The fix is to add code to the postinst script that
  1. Checks if picam has been added to /etc/appmgr.priv
  2. If not, appends /usr/bin/picam to /etc/appmgr.priv
