Sugar environment

This page describes how to set up Sugar (e.g. used on OLPC) for Parabola GNU/Linux.


How to set up / build sugar packages

  • installing: please install these packages:
    • sugar, sugar-artwork, sugar-datastore, sugar-toolkit, sugar-base, sugar-presence-service, python2-xapian, hippo-canvas
    • Sugar 0.90.3-2 packages (32+64bit) are added in issue tracker
  • building Sugar packages:
    • experience: do not use yaourt for building packages (it does not save the packages, though config parameter was used)
    • use instead
makepkg -sirc


ToDos

  • create Sugar repo
  • create packages of Sugar activities
  • build new 0.92 packages
    • since new OLPC OS 10.1.3 (released: 2011-01-16) contains Sugar 0.84 not so urgent, or?
  • find someone who will install Sugar on real life pc Smile.gif
  • in VirtualBox: unfortunately Sugar won't start
    • Sugar needs following parameters (s=scaling, d=display):
      • sugar -s -d
