sugar-build it is an alternative of sugar-jhbuild developed by Daniel Narvaez that allow us to get a development version of Sugar easier than with sugar-jhbuild. Also, it works on Fedora 16, 17 and Ubuntu 12.
Getting the source code
First of all, you should clone the git repository by executing:
git clone git://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-build/sugar-build.git
After that, you should download all the needed libraries to build Sugar. There is a really easy way to do this by running:
make
When the make process finishes Sugar will be able to be run. To do this, you just have to execute:
make run
This will open a new X server. Then you will be able to switch between you desktop and Sugar with Ctrl + Alt + F1 and Ctrl + Alt + F2
NOTE: please, if you find a bug open a ticket with the description of the error.
Connecting Sugar trough VNC
Something like this. Connecting to localhost:6000 with vncviewer worked for me then.
[dnarvaez@thinkpad master]$ git diff

The previous method didn't work for me. So, I tried the following and it worked. This is the line that I changed in Makefile
xinit $(SCRIPTS)/xinitrc -- /usr/bin/Xvnc $(XINITDISPLAY) -once PasswordFile=/home/humitos/.vnc/passwd
Besides, I ran this command to set the password:
vncpasswd
Finally, I got the VNC window by doing:
vncviewer localhost:99
