It is Recommended to look at Trisquel for another solution
Trisquel is Ubuntu based and works well. (Trisquel 4 and 4.1 is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, Trisquel 4.5, on Ubuntu 10.10.)
Trisquel 4.5.1-sugar: Trisquel On A Sugar Toast#trisquel-sugar_4.5.1_i686

Sugar-desktop 0.88 on Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10

Sweets Distribution

NEW 02/03/2011 alsroot and satellit

This is Dextrose 2, thus more than just Sugar 0.88, it contains several features that still are not committed to the trunk + bug fixes from 0.90+.

  • Install sweets sugar 0.88.1 in Ubuntu-10.04/Trisquel-4.1 and Ubuntu-10.10/Trisquel-4.5

Ubuntu 10.10 for PowerPC

Template:Admon/note

UbuntuSugarRemix

As of December 2009, We started a total refactoring of how Sugar is packaged in Ubuntu.

The USR project does not seem to be active anymore (satellit 07/04/2011)

Please See the Ubuntu Sugar Remix https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sugar for the latest information.

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.

For some people the emulator mode has a serious bug where modifier keys get stuck. A work around is to disable keyboard repeat.

from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sugar web page :

Sugar-0.88 on Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic)

NOTE If 0.86 ppa was used before, you'll have to clean it up (unfortunately 0.86 ppa uses epoch versions and couldn't be used with 0.88 one): 

sudo apt-get remove `dpkg-query -W -f '${package} ${maintainer}\n' | grep alsroot | awk '{print $1}'`
sudo sed -i '/alsroot.sugar-0.86/d' /etc/apt/sources.list

To install: 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alsroot/trisquel-edu-3.5
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform

Sugar-0.86 on Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic)

To install: 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alsroot/sugar-0.86
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform

Sugar-0.86 on Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty)

Before attaching ppa, load gpg key 

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv F265806A9BFFF0F4
gpg --export --armor F265806A9BFFF0F4 | sudo apt-key add -

Then attach PPA and install entirely Sugar Platform: 

sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/alsroot/trisquel-edu-3/ubuntu jaunty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform


Sugar-0.84 on Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy)

Before attaching ppa, load gpg key 

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv F265806A9BFFF0F4
gpg --export --armor F265806A9BFFF0F4 | sudo apt-key add -

Then attach PPA and install entirely Sugar Platform: 

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

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

Sugar Team

Sugar on Ubuntu is packaged and maintained by the Ubuntu Sugar team[1], who welcome new contributors to test, document, triage, and make packages.
