Music Blocks doesn't run as a Sugar activity yet.  Walter would be
best person to ask about that.

No, I saw that when building OLPC OS.  A fix was pushed to the master
branch of the upstream repository, and my guess is you cloned the
Sugar Labs fork instead.  I've updated the Sugar Labs master branch.

As you can see, searching for activities using repositories on
github.com/sugarlabs is not (and never has been) a reliable process.

Also, some repositories contain more than one activity (TamTam,
Wikipedia), some contain a branch per activity (TurtleArt), and some
repositories require building before release (TamTam, Wikipedia, Help,
Paint).

Our release process for activities is generally described here;
https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/contributing.md#checklist---maintainer

It may be better to use activity bundles.  It's what they are for.
