 http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Jhbuild

 shows a process with git to download and install a development version of
 sugar

 git clone git://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-jhbuild/mainline.git sugar-jhbuild

 cd sugar-jhbuild
 ./sugar-jhbuild update
 ./sugar-jhbuild depscheck

 Missing packages:
 libffi-devel

 =====> and can't get to ./sugar-jhbuild build

 but http://magazine.redhat.com/2007/02/23/building-the-xo-introducing-
 sugar/ shows a similar but much older (2007?) process.

 Anyway, libffi giving a conflict with g-wrap-devel
 on FC10 x86_64 which I can't get around...  Not sure if they changed
 package names or what...

 yum install libffi-devel
 gives:
 Transaction Check Error:
   file /usr/lib64/libffi.so from install of libffi-
 devel-3.0.5-1.fc10.x86_64 conflicts with file from package g-wrap-
 devel-1.9.9-7.fc10.x86_64

 I'd like to try a devel version of sugar before Fedora 11 comes out in a
 week or so, and not sure what the package issue is, so thought someone
 else might want to know, hence creating a ticket.
