Releases

Overlay was built and run on x86 and amd64(x86_64) platforms.

Stable release
To install last stable release use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS x86 or amd64
Development release
To install last release in development cycle use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS ~x86 or ~amd64
Git release
Fetch sources from git repositories. All packages have 9999 version numbers.
These packages have source USE flag to install links to .py sources, so you can keep git repositories in your sources directory and all .py files from /usr will be linked to your sources directory. You need
- setup SUGAR_SRC_ROOT environment variable
- `git clone` all packages to $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT, names of subdirectories in $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT should be equal to proper package name
- unmask '9999' packages(you can find full list in profiles/package.mask in overlay directory)

NOTE sugar-overlay uses unstable versions for some packages thus if use stable profile, change your package.keywords

cat <where_your_overlay_is>/profiles/<release>/package.keywords >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

Runtime environment

To use telepathy-salut connection, start avahi

/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start

To use jabber connection, configure jabber server in accordance with these instructions.
