[SoaS] [Sugar-devel] Fedora 32 Sugar on a Stick (0.116) status/testing

[Alex Perez]

Thanks, I've tested the x86_64 ISO, and can confirm that we're in a much 
better state, although there does seem to be an issue with the language 
control panel. Ibiam tipped me off to this, and said you'd mentioned it, 
Peter. The list of activities which now start successfully, and run 
properly, is significantly longer. It would be nice to get the IRC 
activity working again.

Other than the aforementioned IRC activity, the Visual Match, Distance, 
Get Books, and InfoSlicer activities still don't start. I had suggested 
to Ibiam that we remove the Distance activity from the default list of 
installed activities in SoaS, as it's not really been tested with non-XO 
machines, and probably doesn't work well, if at all, due to things like 
the varying locations of, not to mention existence of, microphones on 
modern laptop/desktop computers.

I can also confirm that upgrading Get Books from 18.2 to 19 fails within 
the Software Update control panel. It just stalls out and never 
completes. Clicking cancel on the update also appears to do nothing.
