Now that I have an N900, and looking to port my Qt Mobility apps to it... I realize how wrong my replies were. I'm sorry to have confused you. My previous replies were my experiences on building Qt Mobility on Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10 on a desktop... not on scratchbox for Maemo. I didn't even know what scratchbox was or what is Fremantle. ;-) (later on I successfully ported the Qt apps to S60, so I have a bit of experience there too)

(I figured at this point you've figured the solution yourself anyway, right?) :-)

I'll be starting to develop Maemo apps in the coming weeks so I shall put you on my radar when things go wrong hehehe =)) I've just started to install scratchbox and stuff on my Ubuntu machine. I'm very new to all this.

Thanks krk969 for your patience.

Congratulations on the battery level widget. I haven't tried it but I truly appreciate your excellent work.

I'm pretty worried about developing on a N900 though, as I've used it as my main phone too. Is it "safe" w.r.t. the chances of bricking it?

I'm looking to PyQt as an alternative to hardcore Qt C++ with seemingly endless build problems... What do you think?
