:''Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run.'' -- [https://www.debian.org/ debian.org]

In relation to Sugar, Debian is a downstream distribution project that can be used to run Sugar.
 +
 
 +
There are no pre-built Debian images for Sugar.  To use Sugar in Debian:
 +
 
 +
* install Debian ''Jessie'' in the usual way, see [https://www.debian.org/ debian.org],
 +
* change <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt> to use the Debian ''Stretch'' testing release,<!-- https://www.debian.org/mirror/list -->
 +
deb <nowiki>http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian</nowiki> stretch main
 +
* update the package lists,
 +
sudo apt update
 +
* install Sugar,
 +
sudo apt install sucrose-0.104
 +
 
 +
We use the testing ''Stretch'' release because Sugar is not in the current stable ''Jessie'' release, as it was not ready. But this has been fixed.
    
Packaging of Sugar on Debian is done by a team:

The old stable Debian 7.0 "Wheezy" release included parts of 0.96: most of Glucose, but missing most of Fructose.
      
Sucrose packages are usually updated in the unstable release. These packages migrate to the testing release after a while. You can see the current package versions [http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=sugar&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all here].
