Thanks, Shawn. I *did* have the "universe" repository enabled, but apparently it wasn't up-to-date. The Software Sources utility prompted me to perform the update. Now, apt-get has successfully located and installed the sugar and sugar-activities packages. (Curiously, the Synaptic Package Manager still failed to find "sugar".) -John E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (6.1.0.447) Database version: 6.12950 http://www.pctools.com/en/spyware-doctor-antivirus/ _______________________________________________ FourthGradeMath mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/fourthgrademath
