Bernie, > 1) Is anyone routinely testing Sugar in Debian?
Yes, though not deeply. I conduct my occasional rainbow/sugar integration testing in Debian chroots via the instructions written down at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Chroot which I am in the process of automating as mentioned on that page. For the interested: * the Debian automation is usable by me and /might/ be usable by someone else. * the Gentoo automation builds Gentoo chroots but Sugar is not presently emergeable in them either due to Blocking conflicts among e2fsprogs and friends, which might, in turn, be due to my installation mistakes. * I haven't worked on Ubuntu automation but it should be trivial given the Debian work. * Fedora is not cost-effective to automate without functioning distro packaging of yum. (Interested listeners -- please fix up rpm and yum packaging enough to make either mock or febootstrap function properly on Debian so that I and people like me can have an acceptably usable means to test Fedora packaging of our software.) > 2) Is anyone routinely testing Sugar in Ubuntu? I'm not presently, though I hope to get there soon via the plan mentioned above. > The full list of Sugar related packages in Debian is quite impressive... It's actually more impressive than you can see -- Jonas' packaging logic, which may be found in various sugar* repos at http://git.debian.org/ arranges things very nicely for building and maintaining debs from the upstream git branches on the same footing as he and his collaborators maintain simultaneous packaging of all Sugar releases.
