XO's running 8.2.0 and 8.2.1 (thus Sugar 0.82.1) can use the Software update control panel to update an "activity group" of activities and collections. I believe Software update on 8.2.x determines the latest versions from http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1/8.2
Unfortunately these version numbers are independent of the bundles pointed to by activity pages and their semantic info, let alone newer versions on http://activity.sugarlabs.org. People recently fixed Browse, but after running Software update to upgrade my 8.2.1 activities to latest version, I noticed several other discrepancies: 1. Software update doesn't update to latest version for 8.2. Etoys at 94, but its web page's Activity_version says 98 ==> Someone should update http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Etoys_(8.2) !? ==> http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4030 is up to 100, but doesn't list a version for Sugar 0.82 Memorize at 28 and its web page's Activity_version says 28, but http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4063 says v.30 works for Sugar 0.82 ==> Someone should update http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Memorize_(8.2) and http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Memorize_(latest) Read at 56, web page Activity_version says 52 and 61, and http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4028 doesn't list a version for Sugar 0.82. ==> What is the latest Read version that works for 8.2.0? Terminal at 18, but the web page's Activity_version says 19 ==> Someone should update http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Terminal_(8.2) !? ==> http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4043 doesn't list a version for Sugar 0.82 Turtle Art is at 10, web page doesn't identify a tested release. http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4027 is all the way to version 51 but doesn't list a version for Sugar 0.82 2. Activity updates to a later version than its wiki.laptop.org web page IMO just delete redundant and out-of-date info on wiki.laptop.org. Blank out the activity_version and OBX xobundle info for the activity, and use the {{activity migrated to sl.o}} template as Aleksey has been doing. See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Maintaining_activity_web_information Browse at 102, web page Activity_version says its 98 also the web page's lang pootle links redirect to sugarlabs w/ bad https and broken rewrite TamTamEdit at 50, Mini at 49, SynthLab at 51; web page Activity_version versions are 1 less than those. 3. Activities/G1G1/8.2 mis-identifies the version for 8.2 as "(latest)". Sometimes http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1/8.2 has the right version for 8.2, but misidentifies it as the "latest" version when activities.sugarlabs.org has something much more recent. The fix is to change this page to pull in the (8.2) fragment. 4. I didn't grind through every versions page on activities.sugarlabs.org. If your activity has a more recent version than what's listed here that works on 8.2.1/Sugar 0.82, please update its fragment. Here's the set of versions on my XO-1 running 8.2.1 after Software update: Analyze.activity 8 Browse.activity 102 Calculate.activity 25 Chat.activity 48 Distance.activity 14 Etoys.activity 94 Firefox-6.activity 6 (not in Activities/G1G1) Help.activity 10 Implode.activity 5 Log.activity 16 Maze.activity 6 Measure.activity 21 Memorize.activity 28 Moon.activity 10 Paint.activity 23 Pippy.activity 30 Read.activity 56 Record.activity 59 Ruler.activity 3 Scratch.activity 12 Speak.activity 9 TamTamEdit.activity 50 TamTamJam.activity 51 TamTamMini.activity 49 TamTamSynthLab.activity 51 Terminal.activity 18 TurtleArt.activity 10 WikipediaEN.activity 4 Write.activity 60 5. There are many other activities not part of the G1G1 activities group that are out-of-date on wiki.laptop.org. For example, Colors! web page Activity_version says its 13, but http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4050 says version 15 is latest. Again, I think blanking it out and indicated the version for Sugar 0.82 on Activities.sugarlabs.org's "See All Versions" is the way to go.
