[Sugar-devel] What should be the best set in order to develop for Sugar in Ubuntu, today ?

[Thomas C Gilliard]

Here are my recommendations:

Do not use the latest Ubuntu and its derivatives:
It is not ready for sugar installation.

Use Ubuntu-11.04 or a derivitive :
1-)http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Community/Distributions/Sweets_Distribution#Sweets_Distribution_0.94
Sweets Distribution is easier to use for Ubuntu' and its Derivatives 
(Adding an additional Repository to synaptic) as the packages are 
pre-configured, ready to use.

2-)Trisquel 5
  http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Community/Distributions/Trisquel

3-)Toast (Sugar only)
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Trisquel_On_A_Sugar_Toast

Use Fedora:
4-)Install one of the f16 desktops and add sugar via the netinstall.iso 
by "customize now" and selecting sugar-desktop

5-) Install Soas (sugar only) with "liveinst" in sugar-terminal to 
Hard-disk from a booted Live CD

Other Community Distributions work well also

Have fun
