__TOC__

== Sugar on Debian ~~unstable~~ (~~Sid~~) ==

== Sugar on Debian 5.0 (Lenny) ==

=== Official Sucrose 0.82 ===

'''Old, only partial, but officially included in Lenny'''

These are the the core parts of Sugar that was packaged in early 2009 and got included officially with the stable Debian 5.0 release, codename "Lenny".

~~Sid~~, the ~~never-released development branch~~ of ~~Debian~~, ~~currently contains Sucrose 0.82 packages~~.

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

~~Run sugar in a window under another desktop~~ (~~GNOME~~, ~~KDE~~, ~~XFCE etc~~.):

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.

~~sugar-emulator~~

We do recommend using the version 0.82 packages instead, as mentioned below:

~~Logfiles and other data is stored below ~/~~.~~sugar~~

=== Sucrose 0.82 ===

~~You can start sugar using an alternative profile (e.g.~~ to ~~run multiple virtual Sugar environments concurrently) with the following command instead:~~

'''Up-to-date version, unofficial repository'''

~~SUGAR_PROFILE=another_profile sugar~~-~~emulator~~

~~If you need verbose log files for debugging~~, ~~use~~ the ~~following command instead:~~

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.

~~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~~.

Installation instructions:

sudo echo deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny sugar > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sugar.list

sudo aptitude update

sudo aptitude install sugar

~~== Sugar on Debian 5~~.~~0 (Lenny~~) ==

(above works for i386 and amd64 platforms - please post to debian-olpc-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org if other architectures are wanted)

==~~= Sucrose 0.81 =~~==

== Sugar on Debian unstable (Sid) ==

~~'''Old~~, ~~but included in Lenny'''~~

Sid, the never-released development branch of Debian, currently contains Sucrose 0.82 packages.

~~In summer 2008 when Debian Lenny went into "freeze" (finalizing stage where only bugfixes are allowed), only packages from 0.81.x was packaged officially.~~

Installation instructions:

sudo aptitude install sugar

~~We do recommend using the version 0.82 packages instead, as mentioned below:~~

== Usage ==

~~=== Sucrose 0~~.~~82 ===~~

Run sugar in a window under another desktop (GNOME, KDE, XFCE etc.):

sugar-emulator

~~'''Up-to-date version, unofficial repository'''~~

Logfiles and other data are stored below ~/.sugar

~~All packages released officially~~ to the ~~Debian development branch as mentioned above, has been carefully backported to Lenny by same developers, and made available outside of official Debian infrastructure.~~

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

~~Installation instructions~~:

If you need verbose log files for debugging, use the following command instead:

~~sudo -s~~

SUGAR_LOGGER_LEVEL=debug PRESENCESERVICE_DEBUG=1 sugar-emulator

~~echo deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny~~ sugar ~~> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sugar.list~~

~~aptitude update~~

~~aptitude upgrade~~

~~aptitude~~ -~~-with-recommends install sugar~~

~~(above works for i386 and amd64 platforms~~ - ~~please post to debian-olpc-devel@lists.alioth.debian~~.~~org if other architectures are wanted)~~
