BTW, is there any way to generate the .changes file from n900 itself as I need it to upload to extras-devel?
I never though it would be as easy as it was. I didn't take me more than a couple of hours to get the grip of it. Python is very sensitive on the tabulature but other than that it was very straight forward.

Hmm.. i am always doing that on my desktop that runs Ubuntu. But basically it should be possible on the n900 as well. You might need build-essentials installed though but i don't know if it exist for the n900.

I found this though: http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...sso1_armel.deb

All i do to build the package is "sudo dpkg-buildpackage -sn -S" in the same directory i have the source. It will then generate the changes, dsc and tar.gz files. Then i just ship it off to autobuilder (extras-assistant) and the repos.

You can find the source of AwOken here


And i would be more than happy to answer questions. I am always monitoring twitter so there might be the best place.
