==== GUI Activity install ====
 
Without a working browser, we can use the host browser, midori, and pcmanfm unzip tool.
 
 
Select a new Activity from ASLO, http://activities.sugarlabs.org//en-US/sugar/ . (Packages selected to run in Sugar 0.94.1 can be identified in ASLO, using "Advanced Search"). Using Midori, download chosen Activities to, say, ~/downloads. Open ~/downloads with pcmanfm, select the NewActivity.xo, right click, chose extract to, enter ~/Activities, press Save. The Activity will unzip ready to use. You can check in ~/Activities that you have NewActivity.activity
 
 
==== Fixed Items ====
 
Earlier in the process, to fix:
 
 
ImportError: No module named vte
 
ImportError: No module named gst
 
ImportError: No module named pygame
 
 
sudo apt-get install python-vte python-gst0.10 python-pygame
 
 
==== Still to Fix ====
 
 
'''As a known issue''' (for Debian), suggested dependencies, i.e., -S sweets command argument, don't work for now.
 
sweets -S sdk/sugar:emulator
 
responds
 
-- Cannot find requireed implementations for
 
http://sweets.sugarlabs.org/sdk/xulrunner, http://sweets.sugarlabs.org/base/abiword, http://sweets.sugarlabs.org/sdk/evince-python
 
-- Use status command with -d argument to show problem dependencies           
 
-- Use -D argument for debug info, -DD for full debuging output and tracebacks
 
 
 
'''Surf.activity          v.115          Reports, Failed to start.'''
 
 
ImportError: No module named webkit
 
 
To fix tried:
 
sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-3.0-dev
 
which added
 
gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-3.0 gir1.2-soup-2.4 gir1.2-webkit-3.0 libgtk-3-dev libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-dev libsoup2.4-dev libwebkitgtk-3.0-dev libxml2-dev
 
But error persists:
 
ImportError: No module named webkit
 
 
'''Browse  v.129 Reports, Failed to start.'''
 
    ImportError: No module named gnome
 
 
'''idle.activity          v.2            Reports, Failed to start.'''
 
    ImportError: No module named idlelib.PyShell
 
 
'''Read.activity          v.99            Reports, Failed to start.'''

<inkyfingers> Image from: http://www.raspbian.org/ is Debian Hard Float (armhf) for RPi
 
<inkyfingers> Is armhf likely to be a problem for <sweets>?
 
<alsroot> inkyfingers: I didn't try to run sugar on arm. OLPC people support it but I dunno do they use sugar directly from upstream brunches (what was used for sweets (not SD)) or not
 
<inkyfingers> #644010 is now marked fixed, wheezy seems fine to me with python 2.7 - I believe eliminated.
 
<alsroot> btw, whats exact sugar version you are running on Raspberry?
 
<inkyfingers> Ok tried sdk/sugar and dextrose/
 
<inkyfingers> dextrose marginally more success.[Edit ... at first]
 
<inkyfingers> I will try to write only about sweets  dextrose/sugar:emulator
 
<inkyfingers>  raspbian@pisces:~$ sweets  dextrose/sugar:emulator
 
<inkyfingers> Xephyr on :30.0
 
<inkyfingers> About my computer:
 
<inkyfingers> Build: Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable
 
<inkyfingers> Sugar: 0.88.1
 
...
 
<inkyfingers> raspbian@pisces:~$ sweets  sdk/sugar:emulator
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/sugar-artwork for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/sugar-base for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/sugar-toolkit for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/sugar-datastore for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/telepathy-mission-control for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Solve sdk/sugar for building
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/sugar-artwork (0.94.0)
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/sugar-base (0.94.0)
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/sugar-toolkit (0.94.0)
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/sugar-datastore (0.94.0)
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/telepathy-mission-control (5.7.1)
 
<inkyfingers> -- Build sdk/sugar (0.94.1)
 
<inkyfingers> this made me think Activities should be on-board?
 
<inkyfingers> So that trace was just my first successful launch
 
<inkyfingers> df -h (before that command)
 
<inkyfingers> Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
 
<inkyfingers> rootfs          3.3G  2.1G  1.1G  68% /
 
<inkyfingers> df -h (now)
 
<inkyfingers> rootfs          3.3G  2.2G  985M  69% /
 
<inkyfingers> I could see no avatars in F1 in dextrose <seen fine in sdk, 0.94>
 
<inkyfingers> I have no Activities in F3
 
<alsroot> for activities, you can unzip some of them (that are pure python) to ~/Activities
 
<inkyfingers> That would be a good next step.
 
<inkyfingers> Two usb ports are used by mouse and kbd. I will prepare a USB stick next and try that out.
 
<alsroot> inkyfingers: nope, this way you can't install activities
 
<alsroot> inkyfingers: btw, how long it took to build sugar via "sweets" command?
 
<inkyfingers> Over 8 or 9 mins of 100% CPU
