[Sugar-devel] Sugar in jaunty chroots... working today.
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.

Thanks for this Michael. I used your instructions a while ago on a debian testing and made them work. this procedure saved me the troubles related to working with sugar-jhbuild on my main system.
