== Debian ==
 +
 +
We are waiting for Debian to package Sugar 0.112.  Check the [https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/sugar Debian Source Package sugar].
 +
 +
== Ubuntu ==
 +
 +
We are waiting for Debian to package Sugar 0.112, then it will be available in Ubuntu.  Check the [https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=sugar&searchon=sourcenames&exact=1&suite=all&section=all Ubuntu Source Package sugar].
 +
 +
== Fedora ==
 +
 +
We are waiting for Fedora to package Sugar 0.112.  Check the [https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=4562 Fedora build system for package sugar].
 +
 +
== OLPC ==
 +
 +
OLPC packages Sugar for OLPC laptops.  People with OLPC laptops can test Sugar 0.112 now.
 +
 +
The OLPC Sugar packages contain extra commits:
 +
* remove frame animation, and transition box, as they are too slow for OLPC XO, but the changes were not accepted upstream,
 +
* manufacturing support (About my computer; CPU, disk, memory and wireless firmware specifications).
 +
 +
This makes the OLPC Sugar packages an incomplete test of Sugar 0.112, but sufficiently close to be useful to the community.
 +
 +
=== Ubuntu 16.04 on OLPC NL3 ===
 +
 +
For OLPC NL3 laptops, using Ubuntu 16.04, use the OLPC packages, like this:
 +
 +
sudo apt update
 +
sudo apt upgrade
 +
sudo service lightdm restart
 +
 +
=== Fedora 18 on OLPC XO ===
 +
 +
For OLPC XO laptops, using OLPC OS 13.x (Fedora 18), use the OLPC packages, and update only the Sugar packages to 0.112.olpc.x, like this:
 +
 +
sudo yum update sugar*
 +
sudo service olpc-dm restart
