Oops, forgot to mention this.  76 is installed, 86 was downloaded from
sugar labs.
ii  sugar-read-activity                        1:76-1~ppa1
                   Read activity for Sugar

I should have mentioned that too.  Just now I did `rm -rf .sugar
Activities` and now it is not in the activities list.  In list mode
most other Fructose do show - Etoys, write, chat, browse, image viewer
(not a favorite), jukebox (not a favorite), terminal, pippy, turtle
art & log.

Aha - looking at the Fructose list
http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/collection/fructose
another one is installed but vanished:

ii  sugar-calculate-activity                   1:30-1~ppa1
                   Calculate activity for Sugar
