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: Make sure that all build tools are installed.

Carry out these three steps before installing the packages below.

sudo yum -y update
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo yum groupinstall "X Software Development"

Additional packages to satisfy sugar-jhbuild dependencies:

sudo yum install git intltool darcs xorg-x11-server-Xephyr \
     gstreamer-devel gstreamer-plugins-base-devel \
     fribidi-devel enchant-devel openssl-devel sqlite-devel \
     ncurses-devel expat-devel boost-devel libtheora-devel \
     speex-devel docbook-style-xsl GConf2-devel gettext-devel \
     libgsf-devel gnutls-devel

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