[Sugar-devel] [ANNOUNCE] sugar-jhbuild: GConf-dbus dropped, manual action required

[Sascha Silbe]

Hi!

I finally removed GConf-dbus from sugar-jhbuild. This means the
SUGAR_PROFILE feature to run multiple instances of Sugar simultaneously
from the same user account no longer works. If you want to run Sugar
multiple times for testing Collaboration, you now need to use several
different user accounts.

After updating sugar-jhbuild, you will need to remove the "install"
directory and do a full build. If (and only if!) you don't have custom
changes in any of the packages, I recommend to do a full rebuild by
removing the "source" directory, too:

 cd sugar-jhbuild
 rm -rf install source
 ./sugar-jhbuild build


GConf configuration files are now stored in a different place. You can
copy them over:

 cp -a ~/.sugar/default/gconf/* ~/.gconf/

If you don't copy them, you will loose all configuration settings and be
asked to choose your color again.

Sascha
