I've installed today sugar on Ubuntu Dapper on i686 and I hope this description will be useful for someone, but I'm not an expert. I have installed everything under $HOME/olpc/ directory, root privilages are required only for apt-get. Feel free to make changes on this page. Marcin 13:07, 2 June 2006 (EDT)
apt-get
You need a number of packages from Ubuntu Dapper repositiories. libidl-dev, gnome-common, gtk-doc-tools, avahi-utils(?), ... and others.
xulrunner
xulrunner is packaged in Debian, but not in Ubuntu yet. I got it from repository, but perhaps a tarball is a better choice.
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot login (password: anonymous) cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -r MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH mozilla/client.mk cd mozilla/ make -f client.mk checkout MOZ_CO_PROJECT=xulrunner
Create mozconfig file:
. $topsrcdir/xulrunner/config/mozconfig mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@topsrcdir@/obj-xulrunner ac_add_options --disable-debug ac_add_options --disable-tests ac_add_options --disable-javaxpcom ac_add_options --prefix=$HOME/olpc/local
And make MOZCONFIG point to it:
export MOZCONFIG=$HOME/olpc/mozilla/.mozconfig
Now you can compile xulrunner:
cd mozilla make -f client.mk build make -f client.mk install
I prefer to keep everything in one place than to put it into eg. /usr/local/ or /usr/lib/python..., so I set a few variables to make next steps easier:
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/olpc/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/olpc/local/lib export PATH=$HOME/olpc/local/bin:$PATH export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/olpc/local/lib/pkgconfig/
gecko-embed
Get it from repository
# get gecko-embed cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome login (password: anonymous) cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome co gecko-embed
build and install
cd gecko-embed ./autogen.sh ./configure --with-gecko=xulrunner --prefix=$HOME/olpc/local make make install
sugar
Get it from repository. From Mercurial repository.
sudo apt-get install mercurial # if you have not used it yet hg clone http://hg.fedoraproject.org/hg/olpc/applications/sugar--devel
and ...
cd sugar--devel/ ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/olpc/local make make install
Problems
If you have sugar--devel changeset 300, sugar will complain first about modules, which are not found.
cp sugar/browser/*.pyc ../local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sugar/browser/
Than you may see something like this:
File "/home/wojdyr/olpc/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sugar/shell/shell.py", line 152, in set_tab_icon pixstr += chr(c) ValueError: chr() arg not in range(256)
This should help:
--- sugar--devel.orig/sugar/shell/shell.py 2006-06-02 18:03:21.000000000 +0200 +++ sugar--devel/sugar/shell/shell.py 2006-06-02 19:22:51.000000000 +0200 @@ -150,4 +150,6 @@ pixstr = "" for c in data: + if c < 0: + c += 256 pixstr += chr(c)
And I hope you may see sugar - chat and browser :-)
There are still some problems, sometimes restarting avahi-deamon helps. To be continued ...
