:''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.

== Using Sugar 0.106 on Debian ==
  −
 
  −
Sugar 0.106 is available in Debian ''Stretch'':
  −
 
  −
* 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,
  −
sudo sed -i 's/jessie/stretch/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
  −
* update the package lists,
  −
sudo apt update
  −
* install Sugar,
  −
sudo apt install sucrose
  −
* log out,
  −
* log in with the Sugar desktop selected.
  −
 
  −
We use the testing ''Stretch'' release because Sugar is not in the current stable ''Jessie'' release, as it was not ready; "due to critical issues with collaboration discovered during freeze of the distribution release process".  But this has been fixed.
  −
 
  −
To help avoid this happening again, test early and test often.
  −
 
  −
== Using Sugar 0.110 on Debian ==
  −
 
  −
As above, but use experimental ''Sid'' release instead of ''Stretch''.
  −
 
  −
== Pre-built Images ==
  −
 
  −
There are no pre-built Debian images for Sugar, but the tools available in Debian make this easy for any integration or deployment team.  There's no need for us to duplicate documentation here.
  −
 
  −
== Packaging ==
  −
 
  −
Packaging of Sugar on Debian is done by a team:
  −
* [https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-sugar/ pkg-sugar project],
  −
* [https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sugar-devel pkg-sugar-devel mailing list],
  −
* [https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sugar-commit pkg-sugar-commit mailing list],
  −
* [https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-sugar/ pkg-sugar git repositories],
  −
* [http://debian.jones.dk/pkg/sugar_/ package archive of Jonas Smedegaard],
  −
 
  −
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].
