[Sugar-devel] Trouble editing python scripts for sugar based games

[Shreyas Sukhdeve]

Respected sir/ma'am,

I am Shreyas Sukhadeve, a student of Computer Science and Engineering at
Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (IIT BBS).

The reason for writing this mail is to seek your *help regarding a trouble
I am facing with editing python scripts in sugar based games on my linux
virtual machine*.

I do not have a good level of proficiency with using linux machines and
have tried various steps to solve the issue in the past but failed to
successfully implement the editable version of the activities.

The situation I am currently in is that I have installed a total of 4 Linux
Distributions in my Virtual Box, apart from the Ubuntu 20.04 system that is
not supported by Sugar, the other 3(fedora, debian and SugarOS) end up
allowing me to run the activities on sugar when I choose the option of
starting with the sugar interface when entering password, but I am not able
to make any edits to the code that will reflect on the sugar interface.

What I request from you is to help me set up at least one distribution of
linux or SugarOS where I can edit the code. Also I request you to please
screen record a segment of your work when accessing sugar activities for
editing so that I can understand how I need to edit the code when the linux
distribution is all set for coding.

I acknowledge that I am requesting a lot but I plead with you to consider
my situation where I am stuck at the same point from days trying to
contribute but failing to do so due to this problem.

Waiting for your reply

Thank you,
Yours Sincerely,
Shreyas Sukhadeve.
