There was a team of people working on Sugar on Ubuntu, but they didn't had the needed resources and stalled before the 9.04 release. I don't know if getting something packaged for Ubuntu is very hard but Aleksey has packaged Sugar 0.84 for several distros by himself: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Packaging Could you update that table with your opinion on the Ubuntu status? > Can you tell me of sugar working on any distro out of the box? > are there any success stories? By that table, all distros except Arch Linux and maybe Debian are working, but maybe we need people to actually try them out and update the Status column? > I really cannot find anything on ubuntu except wiki pages that are out of > date. > Sorry, but this is very frustrating. It's also frustrating for me that my work is not available in such a popular distro as Ubuntu, but work won't get done until someone rolls up her/his sleeves.
