Hi Dave,

Do you have Physics-2 installed on the SoaS? Depending on the SoaS
version you have, the early ones had Activities installed in non-
standard places, with non user permissions, and sometimes symbolic
links :-( You would need to drop down into terminal, find and remove
that Physics.activity folder. Then the normal install process should
work as normal.

FWIW: On old SoaS, my first task would be to drop into the Terminal
and clean this all up manually, so that all the *.activity directories
were migrated the expected ~/Activities, and ownership permissions of
them given back to the user (recursive chown on ~/Activities). In the
current SoaS activities are installed from their .xo bundles so this
is no longer an issue :-)

Is this an issue specific to SoaS and/or Physics, or generally a limitation of current Sugar that older system-installed Activities disturb newer user-installed ones?

(or did I get it wrong that that was the actual issue here?)


Kind regards,

 - Jonas

Worried if Debian-packages activities conflict with user-installed ones.
