Hi!<br>
<br>
Not sure if this is the correct list but I couldn't find a better match.<br>
<br>
I'm currently trying to install sugar (Sucrose) on Debian lenny (fresh install on a laptop) using sugar-jhbuild (the official packages are rather old) as root. There are several problems; inconsistent instructions don't make it any easier.<br>
In general, I'm following the "Sugar on Debian" wiki page [1]. That page in itself is already a bit inconsistent (e.g. last sentence of first paragraph vs. section 1.3.3). If there's no objection I'm going to fix that and some of the things mentioned below.<br>
<br>
Most of the problems seem to be search path related (so probably have the main root cause); for the last one, I haven't found any solution or workaround yet so I'm stuck.<br>
<br>
Problems encountered so far:<br>
1. "build-base" has been renamed to "bootstrap" in sugar-jhbuild, but<br>
even the output of --help-commands gives the old name (how about<br>
autogeneration of the commands list?).<br>
<br>
2. "bootstrap" fails in some random package because libbz2-dev wasn't<br>
installed (not mentioned on the wiki page) => Python didn't build<br>
bz2 module</blockquote><div><br><br>Boostrap is a jhbuild command which we don't usually use for sugar. Can you try to do a clean build without it?<br><br>Marco <br></div></div><br>
