=== Official Sucrose 0.82 ===
'''Old, only partial, but officially included in Lenny'''
These are the the core parts of Sugar that was packaged in early 2009 and got included officially with the stable Debian 5.0 release, codename "Lenny".
Most of 0.82 Sucrose and Sucrose is included, with the notable exceptions of Read, Write and Etoys.
Installation instructions:
Installation instructions:
sudo aptitude --with-recommends install sugar
sudo aptitude --with-recommends install sugar
Additional Sugar activities can be installed locally from .xo packages. Some activities requiring additional library code (like Read and Write), needs specially crafted .xo packages, however - the standard released ones won't work.
We do recommend using the version 0.82 packages instead, as mentioned below:
=== Sucrose 0.82 ===
'''Up-to-date version, unofficial repository'''
Improvements to official Debian packaging of Sugar, made after the release of Lenny, have been carefully backported by same developers and made available as unofficial addon to Lenny.
Installation instructions:
sudo echo deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny sugar > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sugar.list
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install sugar

=== Sucrose 0.81 ===
== Sugar on Debian unstable (Sid) ==
Sid, the never-released development branch of Debian, currently contains Sucrose 0.82 packages.
Installation instructions:
sudo aptitude install sugar
== Usage ==
Run sugar in a window under another desktop (GNOME, KDE, XFCE etc.):
sugar-emulator
Logfiles and other data are stored below ~/.sugar
You can start Sugar using an alternative profile (e.g. to run multiple virtual Sugar environments concurrently) with the following command instead:
SUGAR_PROFILE=another_profile sugar-emulator
If you need verbose log files for debugging, use the following command instead:
SUGAR_LOGGER_LEVEL=debug PRESENCESERVICE_DEBUG=1 sugar-emulator
If everything is working fine, you can log into Sugar from the gdm login screen instead of running sugar-emulator.
