No, the etoys RPM is different from the Etoys activity. It is in the base build and cannot be removed, because Squeak is one of the supported languages of the XO platform (see http://laptop.org/en/ laptop/software/specs.shtml). So Squeak-based activities like Etoys, DrGeo, BotsInc, etc. can still be installed. Nevertheless I would hope that Etoys (as well as TurtleArt and TamTam) would come pre-installed on a "learning machine". - Bert - _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
