Some application can be converted directly if they are using QT. on the other hand, the UI will have problem.

So you will need to know coding in order to modify this.

Example:
Try to download keepassx

and you will know what I mean.

The application works, but the UI is definitely not for maemo.

The Application that you try to port is using GTK (not QT). so its supported in Maemo but you will need to modify it for sure to be hildon compliant.

And if its using library not supported in maemo -> you will definitely got headache.
