[Sugar-devel] [ANNOUNCE] SugarPlatform-0.84.0 on Caixa Mágica the Magellan project

[Aleksey Lim]

The Sugar Platform is a set of versioned components on which activity
authors can rely when targeting their activities to run on a particular
Sugar version [1].

On Mag it lives in task-sugar meta-package [2] and includes:
- sugar-fructose >= 0.84.0
- sugar-glucose >= 0.84.0
- gstreamer0.10-plugins-base  
- gstreamer0.10-espeak >= 0.3
- gstreamer0.10-plugins-good  
- libxml2-python  
- python-numpy  
- olpcsound  
- python-olpcsound  
- pygame

It means that user could download activities from activities.sugarlabs.org
and it won't be failed due to missed dependencies.

In current release Xephyr issue was fixed thus sugar could be run from current
session with sugar-emulator.
