Please list which of these packages you think needs a port to GTK+ 3? You've probably got good access to the packaging sources, so you can find them quickly. Some of them I don't recognise, so there's a possibility that Sugar Labs isn't maintaining these sources (through contributor attrition or because the source came from elsewhere), and we may have to grab a copy of the sources held by Fedora. Alternatively, you might try to identify the upstream somehow. > > 4) There's an ongoing port of the sugar gtk3 toolkit to python3 and it'll > > get to other parts of sugar soon. > > > > I'd love to assist, but that'll be once i get Fedora up and running. > > > > -- > > > > Ibiam Chihurumnaya <ibiamchihurumn...@gmail.com> > > > > > > On Wed, Jul 11, 2018 at 9:35 AM, Peter Robinson <pbrobin...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > >> > >> Hello All, > >> > >> This is intended to ask questions and seek feedback. > >> > >> I've not really had time to deal with Sugar for some time, but it also > >> doesn't tend to take up a lot of time so it's not been a major > >> problem, we glue it together when it breaks etc. > >> > >> Kalpa has done a good job keeping most of the Activities up to date. > >> > >> But there's a number of things that are getting to the point where > >> they'll need action or they'll break so I'd like to gather details > >> from the Sugar community what their plans are here to see if it's > >> worthwhile continuing the Fedora support of Sugar. > >> > >> 1) gstreamer 1.0 support in Activies.
