[Sugar-devel] Install sucrose

[Alex Perez]

Tony,

Can you cite the documentation you were using? Nowhere in this process 
is that cited, and without it, this one line command can't be added. Do 
you have a wiki account? If so, please feel free to add it to the 
appropriate page yourself, but it would also be helpful for you to 
actually cite the content you are referencing here.

Regards,
Alex Perez
