Tasks
Publish source tarballs for each release
- You can generate a source tarball as follows. It will be placed inside the dist/ directory.
./setup.py dist_source
- Upload it on the web. If you need a place where to upload it, please contact Bernardo Innocenti.
- Update the Honey table on the Source Code page with a link to the latest version.
Problems
This section is an attempt to summarize the problems distributions are having with packaging Sugar activities. Help from the activity maintainers to get them solved would be highly appreciated.
TamTam
- No source tarballs.
- XO specific hacks in the sound code.
Speak
- No source tarball.
Scratch
State unknown.
Ruler
- No source tarball.
- Hardware specific in that the scale of the ruler is hardcoded to the XO resolution and screen size.
Record
- No source tarball.
- Perhaps hardware specific. // issues related to XO's screen ?
Read
- Dependency on sugar-evince, which cannot be installed in parallel with evince.
Pippy
- No source tarball.
Paint
- No source tarball.
- C fill.so module - has source but no build process.
Memorize
- csound missing necessary patches on some distributions.
Measure

Etoys
No known problems.
Turtle Art
No known problems.
- But when we fold in Turtle Art with Sensors, we'll have to make sure that proper python math packages are loaded (previously, we were using numeric):
from numpy.oldnumeric import * from numpy.fft import *
Terminal
No known problems.
Jukebox
No known problems.
Log
No known problems.
Memorize
No known problems.
Moon
No known problems.
Analyze
No known problems.
Chat
No known problems.
Calculate
Minor issue: depends on sharedstate module which isn't officially released. Distros packaging sharedstate separately rely on git snapshots of sharedstate.
Browse
No known problems.
