Ubuntu Sugar Remix is being released in about three days. Releasing USR with sugar .90 required us to coordinate too many moving pieces. I expect that .90 will be available on Debian within two week (thanks Jonas). We will then sync the Debian packages to Ubuntu Maverick (they will be available in a ppa) a week or so later (thanks Seeta). david > In some cases there are new rpms for Sugar 0.90 that are not in a build yet > and you want to verify if those fix an issue, you can do the following: > > - download the new rpm and put it on a usb-key. > > - insert that usb-key in an XO > > - open a terminal and to become user root type: > su > > - then update the rpm with the following command: > rpm -U sugar-0.90.2-1.fc14.noarch.rpm > > Note: You have to add the path to the file on the usb-key to the command > from above.
