Re: [Sugar-devel] [Sugar emulator][Ubuntu 11.04] I can't install an activity (with the setup.py)
Laurent, I don't have experience with Sweets, but normally you would install the version of Sugar that comes with your distribution. When you launch this Sugar comes up in a window. So you have your GNOME desktop where you do your development work, plus you have this window that contains a Sugar environment that you use for testing. You run setup.py dev from a normal terminal window, not the one that Sugar provides. This creates a symbolic link between your source directory and where Sugar wants your program to be. After that any changes you make in your source directory will be reflected in what runs under Sugar. You'll probably need to stop and restart your Activity to see your changes take effect.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [Sugar emulator][Ubuntu 11.04] I can't install an activity (with the setup.py)
Laurent, This may be an issue with sweets. If you are using Fedora then all you really need to do is to install the Sugar RPM's that come with the distribution. Other distributions should have something similar. The module sugar.activity is a set of Python classes. It should be available to anyone developing Python code, whether Sugar is running or not. It is a fundamental library. You can't make a Sugar Activity without it. I don't know what Sweets is doing, but if I was in your position I'd uninstall it and install the Sugar that comes with the distribution. Fedora does a very good job packaging Sugar. Their version of Sugar is actually newer than most kids use in the field. If your goal is to develop Activities there is no reason to use anything else. If you want to hack on the Sugar environment itself you would need something newer, but I'd do Activities first. New or improved Activities will have a more immediate benefit to more students than working on Sugar itself, and you'll understand how to hack Sugar better if you've developed Activities first.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [Sugar emulator][Ubuntu 11.04] I can't install an activity (with the setup.py)
Laurent, I found a web page where it says to run this: sudo aptitude install sugar sugar-activities sugar-emulator With RPM's on Fedora dependencies are handled automatically. I don't see why this would be any different. It sounds like you're getting Python libraries that are only visible from within Sugar. Fedora doesn't do that. You need someone familiar with Xubuntu to advise you. It may be an issue with PYTHONPATH.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [Sugar emulator][Ubuntu 11.04] I can't install an activity (with the setup.py)
Laurent, My advice was based on my experience with Fedora. Based on what you're seeing it would make sense to uninstall Canonical's Sugar (since it seems to have the same issue with not having the sugar libraries in the PYTHONPATH that Sweets does) and give Sweets another try. It sounds like with Sweets you don't need to use sugar.py in your Activity. You might still need to provide one for your XO bundle. Maybe Aleksey can clear that up. You don't really need these libraries available outside of Sugar for development, other than when running setup.py. If using the sweets command instead of setup.py gives the same result then your problems running my examples should be solved. Aleksey has a better knowledge of how Sugar runs under the hood, so his advice will be better than mine.

In the ubuntu terminal I have all sugar enviroment variables and functions: sugarsugar-install-bundlesugar-emulator. I try the Peppy activity (version 34) and works all except the camera... I try the Record (version 93) and the camera works correct... I try my FollowMe plugin and FollowMe activity (that uses Pygame instead GST)and work... I not sure what is your problem..
