==== GUI Activity install ====

Without a working browser, we can use the host browser, midori, and pcmanfm unzip tool.

''' GUI Activity install '''
 +
 
 +
This method is useful if a working browser is not available in Sugar. We can use the host browser, Midori, and pcmanfm unzip tool.
    
Select a new Activity from ASLO, http://activities.sugarlabs.org//en-US/sugar/ . (Packages selected to run in Sugar 0.94.1 can be identified in ASLO, using "Advanced Search"). Using Midori, download chosen Activities to, say, ~/downloads. Open ~/downloads with pcmanfm, select the NewActivity.xo, right click, chose extract to, enter ~/Activities, press Save. The Activity will unzip ready to use. You can check in ~/Activities that you have NewActivity.activity

==== Fixed Items ====
     −
Earlier in the process, to fix:
     −
ImportError: No module named vte
  −
ImportError: No module named gst
  −
ImportError: No module named pygame
     −
sudo apt-get install python-vte python-gst0.10 python-pygame
+
==== Still to Fix ====
 +
The current Sweets installer does not pick up all of the dependencies first time in Debian and Raspbian.
   −
==== Still to Fix ====
+
The dependencies that will require manual installation are listed in the steps below.
 +
 
 +
They are listed in order of ease. The latter items are probably more fundamental to the process. ''The best fix is still required.''
 +
 
 +
sudo apt-get install python-vte python-gst0.10 python-pygame python-webkit
 +
 
 +
sudo apt-get install oss-compat python-gst0.10-dev python-gst0.10-dbg timidity

Issues being fixed, update shortly. [[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 21:50, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
     −
Is there a sys.path issue? No
+
The following assets may also be required, but not yet fully resolved.
   −
Is there an issue in this area - ie change of architecture? http://docs.python.org/library/fpectl.html#limitations-and-other-considerations? No

'''As a known issue''' (for Debian), suggested dependencies, i.e., -S sweets command argument, don't work for now.

Why does -S option not work in Debian?
+
'''As a known issue''' (for Debian), suggested dependencies, i.e., -S sweets command argument, don't work for now. The reason why the -S option does not work in Debian is probably fundamental to making the above process more easy to complete.
