Fails to Start

[chimosky]

Activity fails to start and this is seen in the logs. GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 06:16:20.565: Settings schema 'org.laptop.TurtleArtActivity' does not contain a key named 'plugins-list'.

I'm having the same issue, is there any change we could address it?

[quozl]

Yes, please. org.laptop.TurtleArtActivity.gschema.xml has a key plugins, but not a key plugins-list, so this may be a very simple mistake.

[Ark74]

What should be right, changing the schema to plugins-list or changing the TurtleArtActivity.py to plugins ?

[quozl]

I don't know. I'm just guessing. Perhaps look at the history of change in those areas, using git blame.

[Ark74]

Making the change on TurtleArtActivity.py (plugin-list > plugins) on a running env allows to start the activity, building to see if anything breaks on a clean install.

So just to check, you were trying to use master rather than the latest release tag v220? I've just looked through the commits since that release, and there's a good chance there may be other discoveries to make. What you have found already looks like nobody has been testing.

That seems to fix the issue, I'll make a PR and we can review it maybe (not in a sunday) later, thanks for the heads up.

Checking.... but there is a good chance we are using master.

http://download.sugarlabs.org/sources/sucrose/fructose/ is where releases are made for this source repository.

https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/contributing.md#checklist---maintainer is the release process checklist.

Yep, master :cold_sweat:

Edit: Well, both master and v220 has the same issue, so should I hold any PR then? I think it will be wise to package releases instead of code from master, that will change our workflow, so we'll need to adjust on that path in the coming release.

Thanks again.

Yes, that is expected and I haven't taken a look to see if that should be the fix and one way to determine that is to see what the expected type of plugins is and if plugins-list is of the same type.

Please make a PR if you have a fix.

Our releases are packaged as @quozl has shared above, and they're packaged from master because that's the branch that's released.

Fixed by #86

Yes, thanks for pointing that out @Ark74. Closing as issue has been fixed.
