The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.
Supported versions
Ubuntu is currently unsupported because all recent versions lack at least one important package (python-xpcom).
Prerequisites
In order to install sugar-jhbuild, you need git-core and svn.
Installing dependencies
After installing and updating sugar-jhbuild according to the common instructions, you can use this invocation to install all dependencies automatically:
./sugar-jhbuild depscheck -s | sudo xargs aptitude -y install
Significant bugs
- broken D-Bus security configuration that prevents sugar-emulator from working (because Xephyr cannot work).
- sugar-emulator doesn't work properly if the X server uses evdev as keyboard driver (because of a Xephyr bug).
- python-xpcom missing (and thus Browse cannot work)
Potential pitfalls
- gtk-recordmydesktop may prevent sugar-emulator from working properly
