Summary: <http://sugar.abisource.com/> is unavailable, and so ./sugar-jhbuild build fails.
Hi folks, I'm trying to install Sugar on Ubuntu 7.10. The instructions on ... <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_with_sugar-jhbuild> ... tell me to do this: git-clone git://dev.laptop.org/sugar-jhbuild cd sugar-jhbuild git-pull ./sugar-jhbuild update ./sugar-jhbuild build ERRORS 1 AND 2 -------------- I get as far as ./sugar-jhbuild update, which starts out fine. Then I run into a couple of seemingly non-fatal errors: *** error during stage checkout of hippo-canvas: [Errno 2] No such file or directory *** [8/51] *** error during stage checkout of matchbox-window-manager: [Errno 2] No such file or directory *** [20/51] Both times, I can choose: [2] ignore error and continue to done. However, the notes at <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Hacking_Sugar#Sugar> suggest that both Hippo-Canvas and Matchbox Window Manager are essential components of Sugar. ERROR 3 ------- Then I run into a different issue: http://sugar.abisource.com/ seems to be down. The update process times out 20 times before it gives up. #### Error running wget http://sugar.abisource.com/src/libabiword- 2.6.0.svn20071113.tar.gz -O /home/james/OLPC/Sugar/sugar- jhbuild/source/libabiword-2.6.0.svn20071113.tar.gz *** [23/51] This leads to other insurmountable errors: *** error during stage unpack of libabiword: could not unpack tarball *** [23/51] *** error during stage patch of libabiword: could not apply patch *** [23/51] And so on. ERROR 3 REVISITED ----------------- If I follow the instructions at... <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_on_Ubuntu_Linux#apt-get_the_prerequisites> ... then... <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Hacking_Sugar#Get_Sugar-JHBuild> ..., hippo-canvas and matchbox-window-manager apparently get included in the build correctly, but the build still chokes at step [23/51] because <http://sugar.abisource.com/> is unavailable. Questions: 1) Is there an extra step that needs to be executed before the instructions at <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_with_sugar-jhbuild> will run correctly? 2) Who should I alert about the unavailability of <http://sugar.abisource.com/>? Thanks in advance, James _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
