| + | ; python |
− | <dgd> jhbuild build on fedora11 requires 29 packages but on Ubuntu904 38... should I be concerned with the difference in number? | + | : The sugar-jhbuild command is a Python script, so you need the Python interpreter. |
− | A: | + | ; git |
− | <sdziallas> dgd: this can be caused by different packaging policies...>>><dgd> sdziallas, ergo not a reason for concern, thanks! | + | : To get the source code of sugar-jhbuild itself and many other Sugar packages you need the <code>git</code> command-line tool from the distributed version control system of the same name. In many distributions the minimal package you need to install is "git-core". |
| + | ; subversion |
| + | : A few packages (as of January 2010, only squeak and part of etoys) do not use git, and you need the <code>svn</code> command-line tool from the Subversion version control system to get their source code. |
| + | |
| + | These should be enough to run sugar-jhbuild itself on a typical Linux installation. Running <code>sugar-jhbuild depscheck</code> (see below) will probably list dozens of additional required packages. |

− | To run multiple instances of sugar you can start it in the following way:
| |
| | | |
− | SUGAR_PROFILE=2 ./sugar-jhbuild run
| + | Many users and developers have reported problems with running sugar-emulator because it uses Xephyr. As an alternative, you can run sugar in a VNC session. To accomplish this create a <code>~/.vnc/xstartup</code> file containing the code below: |
| | | |

| + | |
| + | Note: The above code assumes that sugar-jhbuild is installed in the <code>~/sugar-jhbuild/</code> directory. |
