Hi all,

All Debian-packaged Sugar software should now (or in a few hours when 
archive gets updated) be up-to-date with upstream.

In addition to being available in standard Debian unstable, you can also 
get them for Lenny by adding the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list 
(amd64 and i386 currently - might add powerpc later):

  deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny sugar


Here are some tasks that would be nice if someone would do:

  * Try convince release team that these updates should be included in
    Lenny if at all possible.  They are mostly bugfixes and locale
    improvements, and they interfere with no other packages so even in
    the unlikely event that they turn out to be more broken than
    earlier releases they should not cause collateral damage.
  * Fix lintian errors and warnings.  Binaries that need man pages etc.
  * Package activities.  Use sugar-journal-activity as skeleton, and
    start with pure Python packages, unless you want challenges:
    Upstream has weird ways of handling build-dependencies (like
    pulling in a full Git clone as par tof the build process, or
    including precompiled binaries with source).


Greetings,

  - Jonas
