How is the GNOME Peru Challenge 2017 going on?

May 7, 2017. First Sunday of the month, a group of Peruvian students get started the GNOME Peru Challenge 2017-1 with goal setting in the semester: Fix a GNOME app bug.

* During our first session, we compelling some topics such as virtual installation, linux commands, working with GIT, installation of GNOME Builder and History of GNU/Linux.

Issues during installations F25 :kernel panic, black windows, No Wifi interface, etc…Issues GNOME Builder:flatpak installation, incompatibility packages js, git credencials

Managing GIT have more user issues than technicals: right paths, generating credentials

History GNU/Linux to value the other efforts in software development around the world

I didn’t realize that Empathy was unmaintained app Issue:FacebookChat isn’t recognized

* During the second session, tasks: GIMP, GPomodoro, Linux commands and Python.

This time we did not have a space at the university, we went to Toto’s house at VeS.

Some GIMP work of the guys using the GNOME thematic 

Linux commands have been learning as their own pace with BacktrackAcademy course 
First Python exercises and GNOME Pomodoro were also part of the challenge:

* During the thrid session, more exercises of python were expected to be accomplish as well as to be more familiar with polari and the app we are going to interact to fix a bug.

Again, we did not have a university to stay because on Sundays there are no personnel
