= Dependencies =

Dependencies need to be fulfilled on all platforms running Sugar (i.e. they need to be available at all and need to be installed which means occupying disk space), so think twice before introducing new ones. Please discuss them on [[Sugar Labs/Contacts#Developer Lists|sugar-devel]] in advance and clearly state them in the ticket. It's a always a good idea to check whether sufficiently recent versions of your proposed dependencies are already packaged for all (stable releases of the) major distributions, on '''all''' of their (semi-)supported architectures (e.g. ARM and PowerPC). If not, start requesting them (at the distribution bug trackers) ASAP and also mention it on sugar-devel and the ticket.
