Updated Menu Item?

Can you update Getting Sugar to read Getting & Updating Sugar ?

Tested?

What do these tables represent? Distros on which Sugar is bundled? Distros on which Sugar *can* run, with the necessary dependencies? --Morgs 08:42, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

The former, at least in the case of Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora. But maybe we need to add another column to the table. --Walter 11:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
I think at this time the table should only contain Debian, Ubuntu and Fedora. The other distributions/OS are not supported in any way. -- Marcopg
We better try to define supported. --Walter 02:19, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
I think at very minimum supported should involve availability of binary packages. Only Debian, Ubuntu and Fedora meet that requirement. -- Marcopg
I've reorganized the table to try to reflect this distinction. --Walter 11:57, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Updating Sugar to the Latest Version

What is the recommended process for updating non-OLPC systems, such as Sugar on Ubuntu? Presumably, DevelopmentTeam/Jhbuild?

Right now, jhbuild is the only option although perhaps it would be easier to take the source tarballs released by the Sugar team and install them without requiring packaging. For Ubuntu, I would like to see a PPA available that gets updated with development releases of Sucrose, but I haven't yet had time to look into that myself. --Morgs 09:12, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
