Thanks.

The ImportError suggests file viewhelp_webkit2.py is missing; can you
confirm that?  It should be right next to
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jarabe/view/viewhelp.py

File was added when Fedora package for Sugar 0.110 dropped WebKitGtk3
requirements (6e4b6d).

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/sugar/commits/master

This was from upstream Sugar change to require either WebKit or
WebKit2, and was included in 0.112.
