I have installed Sugar on Ubuntu. There is no /home/olpc/. Where does a
bundle go?

In 8.2.0,
bundle/contentbundle.py installs in env.get_user_library_path() , which
is os.path.expanduser('~/Library').

I don't know what user Sugar runs as on Ubuntu.
Can you run Sugar Control Panel's Software Update dialog?

As an alternative, I think you can still put library content in
/usr/share/sugar/activities and the library-common/make_index.py script
will add it to the OLPC library on the home page (does that even exist
in Sugar on Ubuntu?).

Hope this helps,

Sugar on Ubuntu runs as your own user on the machine, so 'cd
~/Library'  will take you there. For activities, would be
~/Activities.

Perhaps a better place to ask about Sugar on non-XO would be
sugar@... and/or iaep@....

Good luck,

Tomeu
