What?!?  So the problem with blank screen running sugar-emulator was 
using 0.82 on Squeeze?  Not 0.84 on Squeeze?

This is different from my experience, then.  Need to investigate 
further.

You are right that Calculate and Pippy have not yet been changed to the 
new versioned packaging of core sugar, so they install together with the 
deprecated 0.82, not the up-to-date 0.84.

(it surprised me that you could actually get a proper 0.82 install on 
Squeeze - then my transition have been even more gentle than planned).

Since I ran into trouble with 0.84 I have stopped transitioning any more 
actitivies from 0.82 to 0.84, and am considering if I should update the 
0.82 packages to the new namespace rather than drop them.  Perhaps they 
make sense to keep around a while longer after all.


Thanks again for your work on this!
