== Packages ==
To install [[0.84/Platform Components|Sugar Platform]]<br>'''NOTE''' In most cases you don't need entirely sugar platform since it's hard to image that Gentoo will be used for regular sugar using, only developing sugar software thus you need only glucose and some parts of fructose like web-activity or terminal-activity.


Overlay was built and run on x86 and amd64(x86_64) platforms
emerge sugar-platform


Sugar packages are being built by [[Deployment Team/jhconvert|jhconvert]] and follow its [[Deployment Team/jhconvert#Packages|matrix]] of package versions.
== Releases ==


Releases:
Overlay was built and run on x86 and amd64(x86_64) platforms.
* last stable release
* development versions (fetching from code repos) - packages with version 9999


9999 glucose packages have '''source''' USE flag to install links to .py sources. So, you can keep glucose git repos in your sources directory and all .py files from /usr will be linked to your sources directory. to use this feature you need to setup SUGAR_SRC_ROOT environment variable and `git clone` all glucose packages to $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT, names of subdirectories in $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT should be equal to proper package name.
* '''Stable release'''<br>To install last stable release use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS ''x86'' or ''amd64''
* '''Development release'''<br>To install last release in development cycle use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS ''~x86'' or ''~amd64''
* '''Git release'''<br>Fetch sources from git repositories. All packages have 9999 version numbers.<br>These packages have ''source'' USE flag to install links to .py sources, so you can keep git repositories in your sources directory and all .py files from /usr will be linked to your sources directory. To use this feature you need
** setup SUGAR_SRC_ROOT environment variable
** `git clone` all packages to $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT, names of subdirectories in $SUGAR_SRC_ROOT should be equal to proper package name
** unmask '9999' packages(you can find full list in ''profiles/package.mask'' in overlay directory)
 
''NOTE'' sugar-overlay uses unstable versions for some packages thus if use stable profile, change your package.keywords
cat <where_your_overlay_is>/profiles/<release>/package.keywords >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
