The preferred method for building Sugar is to build from sources using sugar-jhbuild, as dependencies continue to change. A full build using sugar-jhbuild will require about 3 Gig of disk space.

Step 1: Install the build prerequisites:

sudo yum -y update
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo yum groupinstall "X Software Development"
sudo yum install git intltool darcs xorg-x11-server-Xephyr \
    gstreamer-devel gstreamer-plugins-base-devel gstreamer-python \
    fribidi-devel enchant-devel openssl-devel sqlite-devel python-devel \
    ncurses-devel expat-devel boost-devel libvorbis-devel libtheora-devel speex-devel \
    docbook-style-xsl GConf2-devel gettext-devel libgsf-devel gnutls-devel liboil-devel \
    avahi-devel avahi-glib-devel poppler-devel gtk-doc gnome-python2-rsvg gnome-python2-libwnck \
    libxslt-devel pango-devel gtk2-devel atk-devel libglade2-devel \
    pycairo-devel pygtk2-devel avahi-tools dbus-glib-devel python-json numpy \
    automake17 bison libjpeg-devel libtiff-devel libXt-devel libXres-devel gnome-doc-utils

Step 2: Follow the build instructions for sugar-jhbuild.
