My 8yo son started to have what he calls "Robotic Lessons" at
school, which is not actually robotics yet, but introduction to
programming using Scratch.
The
first time I heard about it I though it was great because I though
Scratch was Linux compatible, due to it comes installed by default in
Raspbian. However I was disappointed to know that it was not like that.
Fedora
has Scratch 1.4 in the repos which is not the version he's using at
school, so I tried to find information about how to install the new
version. The problem is that the version 2 run in Adobe Air and despite
it says that it runs on Linux, it's not all distros.
So,
after a few attempts trying to understand what was missing to run in
Fedora, I gave it up, installed wine and the Windows version of those
products. It simply worked!
