errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

hi, all! when i install maemo sdk for arm in scratchbox(host is ubuntu 10.04), many errors occurred:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libgupnp-1.0-3:
libgupnp-1.0-3 depends on libuuid1; however:
Package libuuid1 is not configured yet.
libgupnp-1.0-3 depends on shared-mime-info; however:
Package shared-mime-info is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing libgupnp-1.0-3 (--configure):
...
dpkg: too many errors, stopping
Errors were encountered while processing:
hal
sudo
libuuid1
osso-af-startup
desktop-file-utils
...
Processing was halted because there were too many errors.
E: Sub-process /scratchbox/devkits/debian-etch/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

anyone knows how to fix it? Thanks!

Same errors here, this needs to be fixed asap.
BTW the error starts with
and the rest just follow from those two packages

probably related, on ubuntu lucid lynx

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

exactly as i has encountered! maybe this is related to the new version of ubuntu

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

i have some dim recollections about sbox being designed for 8.04 -- that would be exactly two yeasr before the current 10.04. but i may be wrong.

as for the recurrent
mmap: operation not permitted
i recollect a similar error message when using flash with jffs. jffs apparently lacked (lacks?) features necessary for mmap.
what file systems are you guys using?

in case of eg
Setting up packagename (version) ...
mmap: Operation not permitted
dpkg: error processing packagename:
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255

you could check
/var/lib/dpkg/info/packagename.postinst
that's the script executed, for anything interesting.

although from the numerous mmap errors, i guess it has to do with either the file system or a missing variable below /sys or /proc.

Hi all,

I'm getting exactly the same errors, you can find them here: http://pastebin.com/QPhF703E

and I'm using Ubuntu lucid 10.04 too :(

If anyone of you knows how to fix this, please tell me.

Thanks!

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

I've fixed the problem!

1) Use Synaptic and uninstall all scratchbox* packages

2) Remove /scratchbox directory

3) sudo vim /etc/sysctl.conf

4) Add this line: vm.mmap_min_addr = 0

5) Save and exit

6) sudo sysctl -p

That's all!

At this point just install Maemo SDK in the usual way and it will work. At least it did for me.

Wonderful find mate! Works for me after doing it.
Now in wiki: http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...d_distribution

This is a bug in lucid kernel:

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

FWIW, I didn't have to do 1 or 2, just 3, 4, 5, and 6 and it then worked with the SDK I already had installed.

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

Hi,

I used the GUI installer and I did as mentioned here by andy80, so there is no problem installing the sdk. but I still can't run the xephyr emulator, I tried using the shortcut on the desktop and I tried to run in terminal but failed to initiate it.

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

The shortcut doesn't work for me, too. Create your own desktop shortcut which calls "Xephyr -host-cursor -screen 800x480x16 :2".

Start Xephyr with it's new shortcut and then click the "Maemo SDK" shortcut on your desktop. It will start :)

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

ya it does work, thank you very much

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

I'd like to add that you can edit started_xephyr.sh located in /usr/local/bin/ with the code you provided or with this one here

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

Fantastic, thank you very very much!!

Re: errors installing maemo5 sdk for arm
 

You don't need to uninstall the sdk or scratchbox, just add that line, reload the sysctl and carry on with the upgrade, that worked for me.

Thanks,
Luke.

I'm using Debian Squeeze 64 bit. I set up the first target flawlessly, and while setting up the 2nd target for experiments I'm getting this. Any ideas?
