Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5
 
Hey,

* I rebuilt all Debian Etch source packages with the Maemo 5 SDK and sdbmock.

* 10,220 Source packages processed.

* 6,451 .debs produced.

* The job ran for 8 days.

* They have not been run through maemo-optify yet--I will test the fix for the recursive symlink bug[1] when ready.

* They were compiled against the current maemos-extras repository. They have no dependencies other than that. In other words, no package within the rebuild depends on anything else in the rebuild--this is the first pass.

* I could batch import packages that don't already exist in extras-devel. I think this would be rad.

* Download locations (temporary):
Directory: http://obra.freemoe.org/freemoe-etch/
Install file for N900: http://obra.freemoe.org/obra.install
/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://obra.freemoe.org/ freemoe-etch/

* Thx Ed for sbdmock help.

* Have fun.

Outstanding! You are the man! :)

Just grabbed a bunch of packages I've been longing for but too lazy to recompile. Thanks!

This is truly appreciated:-) Thanks for taking the time to do this!

The last pocket computer I had was a Zaurus c760. It was waaaaay ahead of its time, and so close to what I thought it could be. But it just wasn't there yet.

Today I got my exchange sync working, which was my last remaining issue. And now, jebba puts up a Debian repo with more packages than existed for even openzaurus/angstrom.

A gcc toolchain, perfectly functioning radios, slick and responsive UI, office integration, razor sharp 80x25 console window, X11, iptraf, joe, ssh -X, unison, bluetooth headphones for those morning walks... everything works!

I am too happy. :) This might be the nerdiest thing I've ever said, but I feel like I'm about to wake from a dream..lol.

Re: Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5
 
Great job!

But got an error from my progam manager when importing the install file.

Is the install file working for maemo5?

Hope to get it working.

You may need a decent chunk of free space on / to get the archive list.

Maybe I am missing something here, but Debian Lenny has armel packages. I have used the lenny repository on the N900 to install a few things e.g. Nano, Aircrack, and macchanger. I guess there may be more packages in your repository :/

A nice effort and contribution though!

Re: Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5
 
Sorry, still does not work for me.
Programmanager fails in adding the catalog.

In
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list

I found the line
deb http://obra.freemoe.org/ freemoe-etch

which seems to be incorrect because from a shell I get:

#apt-get update
E: Malformed line 9 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list (dist parse)

I thing either a directory is missing on your server or the install file is incorrect.

Etch was released at beginning of 2007 which makes it about 3 years old. Adding release freeze means that software has ~3.5 year now.

I know that for Maemo5 it is fresh new stuff (as there are pre-Etch components in rootfs) but I hope that at least Maemo6 will finally be rebased to something more fresh (Lenny for example).

I think that answers my query as to why you would port from Etch!

Since Lenny already has components for the armel architecture, I would expect Maemo 6 to be based on that.

Ya, there is no "user" in the path. Just try deleting whatever you have in your catalogs for this repo and then click on this file:

http://obra.freemoe.org/obra.install

This is known to have the correct path, so you don't have to (and shouldn't) change anything.

Actually rebuilding them against the same root/libraries as are on the device is far cleaner and less likely to have conflicts.

Sorry, no.

As I posted above the program manager fails in adding that catalog.
Did anyone get it working?

If I try apt-get update with that catalog apt-get complains about an parse error (see above).

As I understand it dist and component must be set in a catalog.
...and the corresponding direcories must exist on the repository server.
Or you leave component/dist empty and put the repo in the root dir.

Could you post the URL of the binary packages?
I couldn't find them under
http://obra.freemoe.org
Some are under sources (?!) but not all.

Yes, I see people hitting it from their N900s (including me).

I've the same issues as asys3 here, throws an error when installling.

Edit: Typically i tried installing dsniff and driftnet, both of which are'nt there.

I was able to reproduce it now. (Note if you actually say what the exact error is, it helps.)

I just added a trailing "/" to the URL and it works as before.

(That said, I do have a pretty crappy directory layout for all this--it really wasn't meant to be a main repo, but just a first dumping ground of the builds.)

Even Lenny seems pretty ancient...

I'd love to build more recent packages, but automating that is a bit tricky since the Maemo 5 SDK tools are from the stone age...

They didn't build due to missing dependencies. Build logs for the two are here:


http://obra.freemoe.org/freemoe-etch...ftnet/root.log

Yep!
Now the line
deb http://obra.freemoe.org/ freemoe-etch/
is added to the repository list.

And that works both for prog manager and apt-get!

Thanks again for your work.

jebba - could you share your /etc/apt/sources.list and any special steps (beyond "apt-get -b <pkg>") that you needed to get all these to build?

There's a package in extras-testing called "freemoe" which has a few scripts for rebuilding. There are configs in the server/obra sub directory for sbdmock etc.

I also have a git archive which has more recent build configs/scripts and also has scripts for building on Amazon's EC2.

Re: Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5
 
The Debian Etch rebuilt for Maemo 5 repo has been maemo-optified with the latest version 0.3 from git. This hopefully fixes problems related to plugins and such[1].

Let me know if you see any issues due to optification as this is a test run of the latest version before it is run on all new builds.

There appears to be some problem with the git package...I had installed my own optified git .deb [1] and when I added your repo to my sources.list and ran "apt-get install git" I got the following problems during your post-install:

I am seeing the same problem with the new maemo-optify, so I am reverting the repo to the non-optified version until it gets fixed. I will also followup on the bug report:

I ran into the same issue and put the info in the bug report. Here is how I got rid of the stubborn package I installed:

Code:
~ $ sudo dpkg --remove bwbar
(Reading database ... 31118 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing bwbar ...
rm: cannot remove '/usr/sbin/bwbar': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing bwbar (--remove):
 subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 bwbar
~ $ sudo touch /usr/sbin/bwbar
~ $ sudo dpkg --remove bwbar
(Reading database ... 31118 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing bwbar ...
In other words, just `touch /usr/bin/git-foo` for each file missing and then you will please dpkg. Perhaps there is a dpkg option too...

Re: Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5
