= Sugar on Ubuntu =
 
−
 
 
−
The Sugar packages for Ubuntu provide a Sugar environment that is easy to install and can be configured as an X session in gdm or run in a window with sugar-emulator.
 
−
 
 
−
It is a much simpler platform to set up for activity developers than jhbuild, although is not bleeding-edge.

:{I might get flamed for this; I know I shouldn't post on a wiki like this, but no one will read the discussion: can we list a simple way of installing from jhbuild on Ubuntu 9.04 or installing from a PPA?  Is 0.83 in the Ubuntu sugar PPA recent enough?  How about installing from source (not git/jhbuild) and then adding an X session?  With Ubuntu being the most popular Linux distribution, it is in the interest of this project to flesh out these details.}

Sugar on Ubuntu is packaged and maintained by the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SugarTeam Ubuntu Sugar team], who welcome new contributors to test, document, triage, and make packages.

=== Running Sugar ===
 
−
 
 
−
Run sugar in a window under a gnome login, using the Applications menu > Other > Sugar Emulator, or running the following in a terminal:
 
−
sugar-emulator
 
−
 
 
−
If everything is working fine, you can log into Sugar from the gdm login screen instead of running sugar-emulator.

The following does not currently work, but should in the future:
 
−
Some activities could not be included due to missing dependencies - notably Read and Write. These will be published in the [https://launchpad.net/~sugarteam/+archive Sugar Team PPA] soon, which can be accessed via

−

−
=== Upgrading ===
 
−
 
 
−
If you are experiencing problems after upgrading from 8.04 (Hardy), please do the following to uninstall the partially-upgraded packages:
 
−
sudo apt-get purge sugar sugar-\*
 
−
and repeat the installation command outlined above to install only the new packages.
 
−
 
 
−
=== Reporting Bugs ===
 
−
 
 
−
If you need log files for debugging, use the following command in a GNOME terminal ''(not Sugar Terminal)'' to run sugar with debug logs turned on:
 
−
SUGAR_LOGGER_LEVEL=debug PRESENCESERVICE_DEBUG=1 sugar-emulator
 
−
 
 
−
This generates log files in the .sugar/default/logs directory under your home directory.
 
−
 
 
−
To report a bug on Sugar or one of the Sugar activities on Ubuntu, use the following steps:
 
−
* Go to https://launchpad.net/sucrose which represents all the Sugar components and activities supported in Ubuntu.
 
−
* Click on the appropriate component at the bottom of the page. If in doubt, click "Sugar shell" which is the base Sugar component.
 
−
* On the resulting page, scroll down to "Packages" and click on the hardy or intrepid package.
 
−
* On the resulting page, click on the "Bugs" tab at the top of the page.
 
−
* That takes you to a page listing known bugs on the package, and with a red "Report a bug" button.
 
−
 
 
−
Please include any relevant log files in a bug report: activity log files usually are named similarly to "org.laptop.Chat-1.log" (which is the log file for Chat). If you have run the activity multiple times in the current Sugar session, there will be Chat-2, Chat-3, etc so try to include the appropriate one.
 
−
 
 
−
If a problem or bug involves seeing (or not seeing) people in Neighborhood View, or activity sharing/collaboration, please also include presenceservice.log in the bug report.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Please note''': The Ubuntu Sugar team will do their best to provide fixes for bugs, but it does take time to get an updated package uploaded through Ubuntu's [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates Stable Release Updates] process. Where possible we'll suggest a workaround, or provide a fix in the [https://launchpad.net/~sugarteam/+archive Sugar Team PPA] first.

== Sugar on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (hardy) ==
 
−
 
 
−
hardy includes an old version of Sugar, 0.79. You can install the current stable release of Sugar, 0.82, with the instructions below.
 
−
 
 
−
For bug reporting, please follow the instructions above as for intrepid.

=== Sugar 0.79.0 ===
 
−
 
 
−
'''Old, but included in Hardy'''
 
−
 
 
−
Sugar was packaged in Universe for Hardy (Ubuntu 8.04) by Jani Monoses. The version packaged is 0.79.0, similar to the version in OLPC Release 8.1.0.

−
[http://janimo.blogspot.com/2008/02/sugar-finally-in-hardy-universe.html Installation instructions]
 
−
 
 
−
There are extra packages in a [https://launchpad.net/~sugar/+archive/ PPA], including activities that could not be included in the Ubuntu archive due to license issues, as well as updated abiword packages.
 
−
 
 
−
We do recommend using the version 0.82 packages instead, as mentioned below:
 
−
 
 
−
=== Sucrose 0.82 ===
 
−
 
 
−
'''Up-to-date version, extra repository'''
 
−
 
 
−
The Ubuntu packages were updated to the latest [[Development Team/Release/Releases/Sucrose/0.82|0.82]] point release in the [https://launchpad.net/~sugarteam/+archive Sugar Team PPA].

== Using sugar PPAs ==
 
−
 
 
−
Another way to start sugar on Ubuntu is using sugar-* PPA. The purposes to have these PPAs are that for now there is a lack of official sugar packages in ubuntu(hope it will be resolved soon by porting Debian packages) and give users a chance to test last development releases.
 
−
 
 
−
Its possible because these PPAs are based on packages generated by [[Deployment_Team/jhconvert|jhconvert]], its not a problem to support them. These packages are pretty simple and straightforward and were generated with one idea in mind - start sugar, so they don't follow any Debian/Ubuntu policies and aren't intended to be official packages.
 
−
 
 
−
'''NOTE''' If you have sugar packages installed by another method you need to remove them all(karmic 0.86 packages have Conflicts tags but it wasn't tested yet):
 
−
sudo apt-get remove -f $(dpkg-query -l | grep -e sugar -e olpc | awk '{print $2}')
 
−
 
 
−
Before attaching ppa, load gpg key
 
−
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv F265806A9BFFF0F4
 
−
gpg --export --armor F265806A9BFFF0F4 | sudo apt-key add -

To use sugar-0.84 on 8.04(Hardy)
 
−
sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/alsroot/trisquel-edu/ubuntu hardy main >> /etc/apt/sources.list'

sudo apt-get update
 
−
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform

−
sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/alsroot/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
 
−
sudo apt-get update

= ejabberd collaboration server on Ubuntu =
 
−
 
 
−
We use ejabberd for a collaboration server. Ubuntu 8.10 ships with the required patches included in ejabberd, so you can install ejabberd, configure it and have working collaboration within minutes, using these installation instructions: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd/deb

−
For Ubuntu 8.04 you need to build from source: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd
