	:Right now, jhbuild is the only option although perhaps it would be easier to take the source tarballs released by the Sugar team and install them without requiring packaging. For Ubuntu, I would like to see a [https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart PPA] available that gets updated with development releases of Sucrose, but I haven't yet had time to look into that myself. --[[User:Morgs\|Morgs]] 09:12, 17 July 2008 (UTC)		:Right now, jhbuild is the only option although perhaps it would be easier to take the source tarballs released by the Sugar team and install them without requiring packaging.

			As this page becomes the more technical reference, we need to ask the distributions to provide links to their source repositories, bug trackers, and other online venues for collaboration. Perhaps the Starch and Sucrose tables could have columns for these links.
