SBSettings is not the issue. It just seems more apparent because people will install that first and activator will be installed as a dependency, but activator is the cause of the issue.

I personally don't use SBSettings on iPad, but I wish multicleaner could be used without activator :( I even tried editing its .deb to remove it a dependency but no joy!
