[Sugar-devel] SugarGames, GTK3 and fonts ?

[laurent bernabe]

Sorry but I couldn't apply the patch (maybe because I've already pushed the
commit with the patchs 1 and 2) :

error: patch failed: activity.py:13
error: activity.py: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: main_game.py:158
error: main_game.py: patch does not apply

Regards
