Hi folks, I just wanted to report a small victory: I worked out instructions at
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Chroot which enabled me to run today's Ubuntu Jaunty sugar packages in a debootstrap chroot on my home machine. No promises that it will keep working tomorrow or that it will work on your crazy setup, but I think it's worth trying, since it /is/ fairly repeatable. Michael Who knows -- perhaps they'll work for others who are weary (or wary) of jhbuild? P.S. - If you're looking for a fun weekend project, then you might consider extending my notes by * making the instructions work on more platforms * figuring out how to cache the downloads, e.g. with approx * baked my logic into a downloadable script or makefile * etc... _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
