 Moved the repository:

 That's the current behavior.
 http://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-virtual-env/sugar-virtual-env/blobs/master
 /sugar-env-setup.sh#line36

 > * I think documentation in the README make sense for now, but you should
 consider adding it to sugar-docs once this is more stable/tested. Just so
 that readers don't need to jump through and can read in a consistent
 format.

 Sure.

 > * I'm not sure why there is a dependency on a running X server, but if
 it's possible to remove it, it would be nice. sugar-build itself doesn't
 require one.

 The script runs xhost to allow the virtual system to run X applications,
 but it wont stop if the command fails or if it isn't installed, so you are
 right.

 Dbus doesn't work always in all Chroot environments and Sugar has got the
 necessary conditionals to work without showing network information.
 Does it stop the installation/build process? (That's a bug which can be
 fixed)
