Comment (by quozl):

 Fedora 25 SoaS wasn't tested before release, and contains Physics-26,
 though if installed on disk a later version is available as an update from
 Fedora.

 Even so, Physics-26 and later fails with an error that mentions
 RAND_LIMIT_swigconstant, which you can see using the Log activity.

 I've fixed the error, but a new release of Physics with the fix is not yet
 available.  You might test the development branch by starting Terminal and
 typing

 {{{
 rm -rf Activities/Physics.activity
 git clone https://github.com/sugarlabs/physics.git
 Activities/Physics.activity
 }}}

 This works for me on Fedora 26.

 Hope that helps.
