How to package an app which uses a python module not available in pymaemo
 

Hi,

I wrote a widget which uses PyICU module.
PyICU is not available in pymaemo packages so I built it myself using fremantle SDK.

Following py2deb instructions I tried to prepare my app for autobuilder and I put compiled pyicu files inside "/src/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages" directory. but autobuilder failed with this error :
"Unable to recognise the format of the input file `debian/multical-date-widget/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_PyICU.so'"
which is because PyICU is compiled for armel target I guess.

Can somebody tell me how can I package my app along with PyICU module?

I think you'll want to do two packages - one for pyICU and one for your app (which should depend on pyICU). Upload pyICU first then, once it's built, upload your app.

Thanks Rob1n

Can somebody give me instructions on how to package PyICU for autobuilder.
(PyICU source: http://pypi.python.org/packages/sour...ICU-0.9.tar.gz)
