  • webkitgtk3 is required for sugar to work in f24

Here are some ways to get .108 sugar:

You can also use the everthing netinstall to install sugar-desktop

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/24/Fedora-24-20160504.0/compose/Everything/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Everything-netinst-x86_64-24_Beta-1.6.iso
look for Software selection in installer then choose sugar desktop environment
  • Checksum:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/24/Fedora-24-20160504.0/compose/Everything/x86_64/iso/

or use in another f24 Desktop Environment:

"dnf groupinstall sugar-desktop-environment"
"dnf install sugar-runner webkitgtk3
(webkitgtk3 is required for sugar to work in f24)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1363915#c18

sugar-runner only works in GNOME on Xorg

sugar-desktop works in GNOME as separate login

copr update to 0.109 sugar

copr installed in f24 workstation with a sugar-desktop installed (0.108)
I see sugar 0.109 after dnf update and reboot. (satellit 06/05/2016)
  • Install of sugar 0.109:
12/20/2016
Log of install ^
I will be doing the release management for the 0.110 cycle. Please see the timeline [1]. I would appreciate any comments on the timeline.
I've also setup a COPR for sugar, which I hope to maintain throughout this cycle. Are there any other packaging services that we should have to push testing releases to?
Is there a service for automatic building of live SoaS images? XO images? Let's make this the most tested sugar release ever!
Thanks,Sam"

  • How to test if you are using wayland
1) You can check if you're on wayland by running
$ ls -l $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/wayland-0
if it returns a socket you're probably using wayland.
2)'xrandr' is easier to type... Output names have WAYLAND in them under wayland.
