[Sugar-devel] [Sugar emulator][Ubuntu 11.04] I can't install an activity (with the setup.py)

[James Simmons]

Laurent,

I don't have experience with Sweets, but normally you would install the
version of Sugar that comes with your distribution.  When you launch this
Sugar comes up in a window.  So you have your GNOME desktop where you do
your development work, plus you have this window that contains a Sugar
environment that you use for testing.

You run setup.py dev from a normal terminal window, not the one that Sugar
provides.  This creates a symbolic link between your source directory and
where Sugar wants your program to be.  After that any changes you make in
your source directory will be reflected in what runs under Sugar.  You'll
probably need to stop and restart your Activity to see your changes take
effect.
