Jigish,

I upgraded to open SUSE 11.1 last night, added the repositories and installed sugar and sugar-activities as you instructed. Everything seemed to install just fine, except that sugar-activities said it required etoys and that was not available. It did let me ignore this dependency and continue.

When I tried to logout and log back in with a Sugar session instead of my usual WindowMaker the screen went black for a bit, then I found myself at the login prompt. I tried it a couple of times. Then I logged back in using WindowMaker and tried to run "sugar" at the command prompt. I got a stack trace with a message saying module "hippo" was not found. I went to Yast and found that there were a couple of Hippo Canvas RPMs that were not installed, so I tried installing those. Running "sugar" gave me this:

sugar

   import telepathy
ImportError: No module named telepathy

I tried YAST again to see if telepathy was installed. It looked to me like it was. There were a few RPMs related to telepathy that I had not installed, but none of them looked relevant to Sugar so I didn't try to install them. So this is where I am now and I hope you can suggest something.

I appreciate the work you put in creating this, by the way, even though I haven't got it working yet. My current Sugar test environment in on another machine running Xubuntu and while it was very easy to set up it is incomplete, buggy, and badly out of date.

Also, it looks like your version of Sugar does not make use of Zephyr to run in a window like sugar-jhbuild does. I find being able to run multiple instances of the Sugar environment on the same box very useful for testing the sharing features that all Sugar activities should support. Is there a way to run what you have created this way?

Thanks again,

James Simmons

Cyberorg,

I recently upgraded my PC from openSUSE 10.2 to openSUSE 11.0.

Hi

Please update to openSUSE 11.1, add the following repositories before
installing sugar and sugar-activities packages:

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/cyberorg:/sugar/openSUSE_11.1
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/python/openSUSE_11.1
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/repo/oss/

Cheers
