One of the easiest ways to install [[Sugar]] is to use sugar-jhbuild. |
|||
This page is obsolete, please see [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Jhbuild Development Team/Jhbuild on wiki.sugarlabs.org] instead. |
|||
Sugar-jhbuild will automatically download the latest of sugar's dependencies as well as sugar itself directly from their source repositories, rather than relying on source packages that may have become stale. Below are generic instructions on how to use sugar-jhbuild to get up and running with Sugar. |
|||
==Checkout sugar-jhbuild== |
|||
git-clone git://dev.laptop.org/sugar-jhbuild |
|||
==Build sugar and its dependencies== |
|||
Change directory and start the build. |
|||
cd sugar-jhbuild |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild build |
|||
==Run Sugar== |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild run |
|||
[[Sugar Keys]] |
|||
== Other commands == |
|||
JHBuild has several other commands that can be useful for development. You can get an overview with: |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild --help-commands |
|||
== Customize == |
|||
To customize the build create a configuration file, named .olpc.jhbuildrc, in your home directory. |
|||
=== Write access to the repositories === |
|||
If you have write access to the repositories you can add: |
|||
repos['gnome.org'] = ':ext:marco@cvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome' |
|||
repos['mozilla.org'] = ':ext:marco%gnome.org@cvs.mozilla.org:/cvsroot' |
|||
repos['git.laptop.org'] = 'git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/artwork' |
|||
==Notes== |
|||
sugar-jhbuild is still in early development. In particular, dependencies detection will be improved. It needs a lot of testing, so give it a try and [http://dev.laptop.org/newticket?component=sugar report issues]! |
|||
==Troubleshooting== |
|||
In the new (as of 2007-01-26) builds it should not be necessary, but if you hit trouble you could verify the build with |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild sanitycheck |
|||
And fix the reported problems. |
|||
Again, as of 2007-01-26, new builds should not have problems when building, but just in case: |
|||
''get a clean sugar-jhbuild'' |
|||
cd sugar-jhbuild |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild build meta-sugar-base |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild build |
|||
