-Fedora 20's GNOME3 default graphical software installer tool fails to find Sugar, reportedly as Sugar is not considered to be an "application".
-[https://fedorahosted.org/yumex/ Yum Extender] finds Sugar by searching for "Groups".
-Yum Extender is the default graphical software installer tool in certain Ferdora Desktop Environments, for instance XFCE, and is found in ''Applications Menu -> Administration -> Yum Extender''.
-If not installed, use the default software installer tool to search for and install ''yumex''. See also [http://www.yumex.dk/p/documnetation.htm YumEx documentation].
-Open Yum Extender. '' Package Filters'' are found on the line below the main search bar. Use the Package Filter buttons to select "Groups"
-The navigation pane on the left, now lists all Package Groups in alphbetical order.
-Near the foot of the list, press the "+" to open "Sugar Desktop Environment".
-This will reveal two "Groups". Place a check in the box for "Sugar Desktop Environment". Review the selection in the right hand pane.
-At the foot of the Yum Extender window, "Install All" will mark all packages for installation.
-Now press "Apply" to have all necessary packages and dependencies installed, together with a useful selection of Activities.
-In order to be able to use ''Sugar-runner'', enter sugar-runner in the search field, press "Enter", mark it for installation and press "Apply".
-Later (if desired) you can return to Yum Extender and install further packages within "Additional Sugar Activities"
-<!-- on , from the Applications Menu, select Administration, select Software.
-Select (top item) Package collections, scroll down to
-:::'''Sugar Desktop Environment'''<br> <span style="color: gray">sugar-desktop</span>
