A strategy that has worked for me in the past is to chdir to the right directory in the activity module startup. That way you don't have to import sugar modules into low level source code. Another way to deal with it is to use the environment variables instead of the sugar APIs, and just test for the presence of the environment variables before using them. -Wade ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

(just a joke) In my mind using rainbow is like using cannons to shot sparrows more relevant weapon is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slingshot :D -- Aleksey ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Sorry if I wasn't clear, it's not a Rainbow bug, but an issue I need to fix in Labyrinth. I had a few early passes at fixing Journal image import integration but not quite there yet. Basically the issue is that Labyrinths image loading code is buried deep down in multiple levels of class and/or Python modules, so I don't have obvious access to the various Activity name spaces for knowing where is safe to save.

[Sugar-devel] [RELEASE] Labyrinth-5
Hi, == Source == http://download.sugarlabs.org/sources/honey/Labyrinth/Labyrinth-5.tar.bz2 == Bundle == http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4078 == Web page == http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Labyrinth Again, many thanks go to Aleksey Lim (alsroot) for all his efforts and assistance. There is still plenty of work to do, and bugs to fix, translations to start... but this at least gets our best effort so far, out there. I'll try and make sure there a much shorter time gap before a version 6 release ;-) Regards, --Gary P.S. One notable bug for XO 8.2 distro users, is that adding images from the Journal is currently broken (bumping into rainbow), adding images works fine on sugar-jhbuild and should be fine on Soas distros and xo-rawhide (though I haven't tested there just yet). ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
