Why would you? $SUGAR_PROFILE is never set except by developers, and rarely even by them. How they set it you cannot guess - .xsession is a common place, but there isn't even a recommendation for it I think. And since I doubt you want to run .xsession from your cronjob, you will not get the same environment as Sugar anyways. So IMHO you should just use "default". - Bert - ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

You could try the following: PROFILE_PATH="$(python -c 'import sugar.env ; print sugar.env.get_profile_path()')" Verified to work inside sugar-jhbuild. Should work for distro packages as well, but don't have any installation to test that.

I don't think I can answer that for you, but the implementation is really simple: http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/sugar-toolkit/repos/mainline/blobs/master/src/sugar/env.py#line31 I don't think we are going to change the path of that dir any time soon.

'default' is the name of the profile. If you want to use a different profile, you can set the env var SUGAR_PROFILE. You can use sugar.env.get_profile_path() in all those Sugar versions.
