Seriously give me an example where it breaks compliance. Except package managment. Is it that hard??

MeeGo is based on Moblin not Maemo. And a couple of other things that differs between Maemo and MeeGo besides package management: Maemo uses Busybox and Sysv initsystem and all of Debian's /etc. MeeGo uses Bash, Coreutils and Upstart initsystem. The next MeeGo will hopefully use Systemd too. And I'm sure there are plenty of other things too but these are the most important ones I can think of right now.

Edit: So to clarify:

Maemo: Busybox, DEB and Sysv
MeeGo: Bash, Coreutils, RPM and Upstart
