I've been using a binary compilation for unsquashfs that I've gotten working for Maemo for a while now.

In case anyone else would like unsquashfs abilities like unpacking .pnd files on their N900, I thought I would upload it.

I don't have a debian box or scratchbox instance to make this a .deb or upload to the repositories right now, but this is a stand alone binary so it should work pretty simply.

Just copy the following file to your N900's /usr/bin directory:

http://www.besh.com/~chad/unsquashfs

You'll need to be root, and you make need to run the following after you copy it:

chmod 777 /usr/bin/unsquashfs

Well remember that this is only the decompression binary, so it won't help you save space on it's own. But if you squashfs anything on your N900, then this will help you unpack that. :P

Is the source for unsquashfs available by any chance? Seen openpandora guys got VVVVVV running, awesome game it seems and should run on N900 easily (though uses EGL, but author of it mentioned something about it being opensourced in near future possibly)
