[IAEP] Sugar on RedHat or Zentos?

2009-10-05 Thread Rita Freudenberg
Hi,

does anybody know if there will be a Sugar on RedHat or Zentos? A 
colleague of mine would like to run Sugar on Sun Thin Clients. If noone 
is working on that right now, can you tell me how difficult it would be 
build the Sugar port? We can try to find a interested student at our 
university.

Greetings,
Rita

*wave* :)

I had been planning to take on this, but it actually depends on when 
RHEL 6 is released. The current Gnome-stack that RHEL 5 (and that way of 
course CentOS, too) ships is somewhat too old for Sugar, so we'd be 
ending up in a dependency hell.

Since RHEL 6 is possibly going to be based on something like F11 or F12, 
it will ship versions that we can work with, though.
