Activity download not scalable

[quozl]

Rather than a series of wget and unzip commands, this might be simplified to a list of URLs and code that parses the list;

for URL in $(<files/Sugar-activities-list); do
    BASE=$(basename $URL)
    FILE=files/Sugar-activities/$BASE
    if [ ! -e $FILE ]; then
        wget $URL -P files/Sugar-activities
    fi
    unzip $FILE -d ${BUILDDIR}/chroot/usr/share/sugar/activities
done

Thanks for simplifying it, was working on something similar. Will try this code

I tried this code by replacing the multiple wget and unzip files in 11-mod.sh but it didn't work. The activities were not installed, I had also created a new file named 'Sugar-activities-list' with the list of URLs.

You'd better debug it then. Good chance that it is the bash-ism on the first line. See "man bash" for more detail, and compare to whatever shell you or your distribution has configured to be /bin/sh, which is activated by the first line of rpi23-gen-image.sh

Alright, will do that

Since this discussion above, Sugar Live Build uses a shell script to git clone activity repositories into the build tree, see build. This method avoids both embedded bundles and submodules.
