It was also made part of the Sugar platform in glucose. It's hard to estimate usage numbers but I'm pretty sure OLPC deployments of Etoys in Sugar do outnumber the regular (non-Sugar) users. So we give special care to the Sugar version. There also used to be slight differences, though we may almost have reached a point where the difference is so minimal that we can unify the two releases. In any case, the OLPC/Sugar version can run stand-alone outside of Sugar fine now, so we need only a single Linux package.</div><div><br></div><div>For now it's correct to use the glucose tar balls.
