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This page is obsolete, please see [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Jhbuild Development Team/Jhbuild on wiki.sugarlabs.org] instead.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. |
|||
==Install required packages== |
|||
These are distribution specific. Feel free to add or update instructions for your own distribution. |
|||
===Fedora Core 5=== |
|||
sudo yum install git |
|||
===Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake."=== |
|||
You need a number of packages from the Ubuntu repositories. Some of these packages are not available for the stock Ubuntu install, and you may need to enable the ''universe'' and ''multiverse'' repositories. |
|||
sudo apt-get install build-essential cvs libgtk2.0-dev libidl-dev gnome-common gtk-doc-tools libxt-dev automake1.7 automake1.9 python-gtk2-dev python2.4-avahi git-core cogito python-dev avahi-utils |
|||
==Checkout sugar-jhbuild== |
|||
git clone git://dev.laptop.org/sugar-jhbuild |
|||
==Build sugar and it's dependencies== |
|||
cd sugar-jhbuild |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild build |
|||
==Run Sugar== |
|||
./sugar-jhbuild run |
|||
== 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' |
|||
=== Excluding packages === |
|||
If you want to exclude package from the build (because you want to use those provided by your distribution) add something like: |
|||
skip = [ 'mozilla', 'gecko-embed' ] |
|||
Note that detection of system packages will be automated at some point. |
|||
==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]! |
