Re: Anyone willing to compile my package and make it into a .deb
 

OK i have manged to get to Step 2.
It wants me to use scratchbox. Im a windows user so this doesnt mean anything to me. google doesnt help me either.

Where do i get this and does it install on the n900?
If not i got a windows pc, so what can i do?

What is step 2? I already did that a long time ago and don't want to clobber my existing setup there.
Scratchbox is the development environment for the N900 installed on your PC.
If you are on windows, install a Linux VM and scratchbox on it.
There's a finished VM on <http://maemovmware.garage.maemo.org/2nd_edition/>, just use that.

Start here for the SDK and Scratchbox.

Hey Crash I finally got the Maemo SDK on my windows using VMware and i got into terminal and tried compiling the original source and i could not even get the same output as you, it says that: unable to determine source package? How did you get passed that, i noticed you get dependencies problems, i dont even get that?

Surely this untouched source should be able to compile?
Can someone else try compile it themselves, here is the link to the orignal source: http://maemo.org/packages/source/vie...n/2.6.6-1nix0/
