Hello, I was asked to post this also here.
1. message below is posted at the moment at Parabola mailing list (1) 2. message follows: Hello, seems sugar not possible yet in Parabola, see install tutorial here (1). But some users from #sugar channel offered help (copy + paste with permission). If someone wants to contact them, feel free or forward elsewhere Erkan YILMAZ 1. see install tutorial here (1) 2. copy + paste with permission: <Erkan_Yilmaz_> Hi, when I run "./sugar-jhbuild update" I get error: "Refusing to run as root." -> I found only pastebin entries for this - looking at script seem getuid or geteuid make trouble <Erkan_Yilmaz_> I am on parabola linux (it's basically arch) <Erkan_Yilmaz_> how could I proceed, besides uncommenting that part of code :-( ... <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: by running sugar-jhbuild as user instead of root <Erkan_Yilmaz_> silbe, thx for replying: I am running as normal user <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: what does "id" say? <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: Arch Linux isn't supported by sugar-jhbuild, sorry (though that isn't the error you're hitting right now - it would complain after you fix the current issue) <Erkan_Yilmaz_> silbe, I see, I found so far on arch: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sugar <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: no idea why that page links to sugar-jhbuild, but it will definitely refuse to work because there's no config for Arch Linux. <Erkan_Yilmaz_> thanks for your time silbe <Erkan_Yilmaz_> let#s see what I come up with <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: yw. BTW, if someone is willing to maintain the config file (list of dependencies), I'd be happy to let sugar-jhbuild support Arch Linux. But it would need to be on a long-term basis - we had Mandriva support in the past, but as I have neither a Mandriva install nor Mandriva knowledge myself, it got outdated and had to be removed (because it wouldn't work anyway). <alsroot> Erkan_Yilmaz_: btw, if there is arch backend for PackageKit, addin arch support to sweets will be a work of a couple of minutes.. <silbe> Erkan_Yilmaz_: but unless you're going to hack on Sugar core, sugar-jhbuild isn't really the right tool for the job anyway... <Erkan_Yilmaz_> thx alsroot silbe <Erkan_Yilmaz_> I was trying to get it running <Erkan_Yilmaz_> "just" <Erkan_Yilmaz_> but I could forward your guys info? <silbe> sure, go ahead <Erkan_Yilmaz_> do I have permission to quote you guys? <silbe> of course <Erkan_Yilmaz_> thx, how about you alsroot ? <alsroot> Erkan_Yilmaz_: sure, if will use sweets (ie, 0install/PackageKit), just let me know (1) http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Jhbuild (1) http://list.parabolagnulinux.org/pipermail/dev-parabolagnulinux.org/2011-January/000864.html -- Find me at: LinkedIn http://de.linkedin.com/in/yilmazerkan/en<http://www.linkedin.com/in/yilmazerkan> XING https://www.xing.com/profile/Erkan_Yilmaz2 blog http://IaskQuestions.com http://www.systemswiki.org Systems Thinking World Group: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?home=&gid=2639211&trk=anet_ug_hm gnu/linux user #500092 ********************************************************************************************** This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
