'''Improved Telepathy related code'''
 
−
 
−
A part of Telepathy related code was rewritten to try to minimize regressions from Glucose-0.88 code. The goal is to make Shell's Telepathy related functionality the same level stable as it was in 0.88 before total redesigning Telepathy related code.

−
'''Blacklist Shell components'''
 
−
 
−
To make downstream distributing more flexible, Sweets Distribution provides functionality to blacklist usage of particular Shell components. The blocking rules should be place to arbitrary files to {{Code|/etc/sugar/blacklist}} directory. The blacklist might be overridden by {{Code|/etc/sugar/whitelist}} directory files. Each line in blacklist/whitelist files should contain one rule in format:
 
−
 
−
<CATEGORY> <COMPONENT>
 
−
 
−
Where the {{Code|CATEGORY}} is a type of Shell components and {{Code|COMPONENT}} is an item within the catogory:
 
−
 
−
* '''cpsection'''<br>Control panel sections, components should be directory names from {{Code|/usr/share/sugar/extensions/cpsection}};
 
−
 
−
* '''deviceicon'''<br>Device icon, components should be {{Code|.py}} file names from {{Code|/usr/share/sugar/extensions/deviceicon}} directory;
 
−
 
−
* '''globalkey'''<br>Global key handler, components should be {{Code|.py}} file names from {{Code|/usr/share/sugar/extensions/globalkey}} directory;
 
−
 
−
* '''updater'''<br>Ignore activities while launching activity updates from ''Software update'' Control panel section, components should bundle_id values. For example, Sweets Distribution might provide Fructose activities, the ones that depend on not trivial dependencies should be used only from native packages.

# Example of blacklist file

−
updater    org.laptop.WebActivity  # Depends on broken xulrunner package
 
−
cpsection  sweets                  # Downstream distributions do not need it
 
−
deviceicon battery.py              # Broken on my system
 
−
globalkey  viewsource.py            # Аt the same time...
 
−
 
−
'''Disabled reusing of system users while registration'''
 
−
 
−
In pristine Sucrose, this feature is enabled by default. That means that system user will be reused as Sugar nickname while Sugar initial startup. To revert original behavior, set {{Code|/desktop/sugar/user/default_nick}} GConf key to {{Code|system}}.
 
−
 
−
'''Registration on school servers is disabled by default'''
 
−
 
−
Sugar Shell support registration on OLPC XS school server. Sweets Distribution does not provide OLPS XS and this functionality is disabled by default. To revert original behavior, set {{Code|/schemas/desktop/sugar/show_register}} GConf key to {{Code|true}}.
 
−
 
−
'''Closer integration with login managers'''
 
−
 
−
Sugar Shell will reuse language setting from GDM manager, [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2603 #2603].
