Line 1:
Line 1: − {{TOCright}} − The Sugar packages for Debian provide a Sugar environment that is easy to install and can be configured as an X11 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. − − Sugar on Debian is packaged and maintained by the [http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-olpc/ Alioth OLPC team], who welcomes new contributors to test, document, triage, and make packages. − __TOC__ − == Sugar on Debian 5.0 (Lenny) == − − === Official Sucrose 0.82 === − − '''Old, only partial, but officially included in Lenny''' − − These are the core parts of Sugar that was packaged in early 2009 and got included officially with the stable Debian 5.0 release, codename "Lenny". − − Most of 0.82 Sucrose and Sucrose is included, with the notable exceptions of Read, Write and Etoys. − − Installation instructions: − sudo aptitude --with-recommends install sugar − − Additional Sugar activities can be installed locally from .xo packages. Some activities requiring additional library code (like Read and Write), needs specially crafted .xo packages, however - the standard released ones won't work. − − We do recommend using the version 0.84 packages instead, as mentioned below: − − === Sucrose 0.86 and 0.84 === − − '''Up-to-date version, unofficial repository''' − − Improvements to official Debian packaging of Sugar, made after the release of Lenny, have been carefully backported by same developers and made available as unofficial addon to Lenny. − − Installation instructions: − sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny sugar > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sugar.list' − sudo aptitude update − sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.86 − − For Sucrose 0.84, replace last line with the following: − sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.84 − − (above works for i386 and amd64 platforms - please post to debian-olpc-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org if other architectures are wanted) − − == Sugar on Debian unstable (Sid) == − − Sid, the never-released development branch of Debian, currently contains Sucrose 0.88, 0.86 and 0.84 packages. − − Installation instructions: − sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.88 − − For Sucrose 0.84 and 0.86 use one of these commands instead: − sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.86 − or − sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.84 − − == Usage == − − Run sugar in a window under another desktop (GNOME, KDE, XFCE etc.): − sugar-emulator − − Logfiles and other data are stored below ~/.sugar − − You can start Sugar using an alternative profile (e.g. to run multiple virtual Sugar environments concurrently) with the following command instead: − SUGAR_PROFILE=another_profile sugar-emulator − − If you need verbose log files for debugging, use the following command instead: − SUGAR_LOGGER_LEVEL=debug PRESENCESERVICE_DEBUG=1 sugar-emulator − − If everything is working fine, you can log into Sugar from the GDM login screen instead of running sugar-emulator. − − == Resources == − − * http://wiki.debian.org/Sugar − * http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-olpc/
