| |
− | I just wanted to give everyone a heads about something coming down the pipe:)
| |
− | On of the primary frustrations that I have been hearing from the
| |
− | community is their inability to easily get hardware for their
| |
− | deployments.
| |
− | In response, we have released of an iso running Sugar on Ubuntu at
| |
− | http://ubuntu.activitycentral.com/makeiso/iso/ubuntu_12.04-20130712_i686.iso
| |
− | * Username is "ubuntu", with empty password.
| |
− | As alway, AC's code is 100% free and open source.
| |
| | | |
− | ===What's new===
| + | Sugar 0.110 is in the archive for Ubuntu 17.10 Artful, and can be installed by typing |
− | * Tuned up python-dbus clears the last bug that made most activities
| |
− | fail to start.
| |
− | * Logs in into Sugar automatically.
| |
− | * Most activities work (some will need some work, but it should not be
| |
− | caused by problems in Sugar dependencies anymore, but things specific
| |
− | to the activity). To be precise they start, didn't test them in deeply
| |
− | Didn't test collaboration yet.
| |
− | * General polish to make it look closer to a final product.
| |
− | ===What fails===
| |
− | * Some quirks with the tamtam activities as usual, probably already
| |
− | fixed in newer bundles.
| |
− | * Write does not work as the gtk3 version of pyabiword or the gtk2
| |
− | version of libabiword are not available in Ubuntu, so both gtk2 and
| |
− | gtk3 versions of the activity are missing half of the dependencies.
| |
− | * Etoys and Scratch fail, probably because squeak-vm is not the proper
| |
− | version, so I'll be packaging that later as well.
| |
− | * The keyboard and network sections of the CP fail, the code makes
| |
− | some assumptions about being run in a xo or under fedora, resulting in
| |
− | unhandled exceptions.
| |
− | * Sometimes activities may fail to start if you open them right after
| |
− | logging in, because something with dbus is not yet fully running.
