This is caused by the existence of the file use.keplerdata, e.g. C:\Program
Files\Kepler-2.3\build-area\use.keplerdata .

It looks like use.keplerdata is currently always created and included in the
installers. I don't know why. I thought KeplerData\kepler.modules was only
supposed to be used as a place to download modules when a user doesn't have
permission to download into the kepler application folder.

I also see that KeplerData\kepler.modules\build-area contains files like
install-id.txt, modules.txt, current-suite.txt. If these are not modified by
the build-system, the module manager, and during installation of a new kepler,
it seems like we will have problems like bug#5458.

David, can you clarify when KeplerData\kepler.modules is supposed to be used?
