 '''Patches:'''

 The patches have a lot of logging, because i need to continue testing.

 To sugar-jhbuild:

 0001-add-sugar-update-control-to-0.84-modulset.patch

 To sugar-toolkit:

 0001-change-the-version-from-the-activity-from-int-to-str.patch

 0001-Add-class-to-parse-and-compare-the-bundles-version-n.patch

 To sugar-update-control:

 0001-changes-to-enable-the-use-of-dotted-number-version-i.patch

 Changes to bitfrost:

 I have installed the bitfrost rpm (bitfrost.x86_64 0:1.0.8-1.fc11) and
 needed to change two files only.

 In the file /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/bitfrost/leases/keys.py
 and coment the following lines (I am testing in a VM, but now I think
 could create the directory instead):

 {{{
 # First, a crude check to ensure that OFW is available.
 -if not os.path.exists("/ofw/mfg-data"):
 -    raise Exception("OFW is not mounted, cannot read deployment keys")
 +#if not os.path.exists("/ofw/mfg-data"):
 +#   raise Exception("OFW is not mounted, cannot read deployment keys")
 }}}

 Also i modified the following file to use activities versions as strings.

          if self.in_group_name > 0:
              self.in_group_name -= 1
 }}}

 '''Testing:'''

 I have created http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1-TestGon with a
 subset of activities, and have modified Calculate and Browse activities
 (only the activity_version field in the activity.info file)

 I have tested the update in the panel control, and downloading activities
 with the Browse.

 There are a file test_versions.py in sugar-toolkit/tests/lib to test the
 schema used.
