helex: looks like we are all in the same boat. I'm too willing to upload to extras-devel. PyPackger generates the deb and tar.gz, but when I try to install I get a dpkg error about "no such a file or directory..."
Hope you succeed!

Is anyone needs to package a Python application, this is an example how I do it for modRana.
It uses COBS to generate binary packages, but also creates autobuilder compatible source packages (in the archive folder).

The evil side of the force was it! I had a svg file with M$ (for a company in Redmond) in the file Name. My app worked fine. But the py2deb python file was unable to work correcty because of this small $ symbol.
ARG!
1 hour porting - 6 hours packaging... great!
So, for all without a N9, you're now able to download the worst contribution to the coding competition 2012 from extra-devel.
Kojacker, would you please update my entry? My contribution is not anymore a N9/50 only app. It is now also availiable for the N900. Is this post enought or should I write you a short mail?

I just updated the wiki to include my submission.
I am having trouble uploading it to Extras repo though. Keeps saying I do not have a valid .changes file. The file was generated with pypackager. Any tips or anyone have a .changes file that is working that I could compare mine to?

I just submitted my app Kana of The Day and also edited the wiki, leaving Entry Received to 'TBD'.
It's OK for use, however it has a minor build problem (doesn't clean after building) that I would appreciate it if anyone helps me fix that (not urgent).
By the way, I had done some Qt projects before, but this is the first one for Maemo. Things like d-bus and packaging really killed me. So literally I'm eligible for beginner entry. However thinking there are people more 'beginner' than me my morals didn't let me choose the 'Beginner: Yes' choice. Please contest leaders (Kojacker?) determine my status.

Hi all, sorry for not replying to your posts earlier. Spent all day helping to clean out my parents attic - I'm covered in dirt and dust but atleast I did manage to find some of my old toys
There's bonus virtual points if anyone can name what the blue hairy figurine is on the right of Castle Greyskull - I assume it's also some character from He-Man? I haven't seen them in over 20 years...
I want to give a special thanks mention to Woody14619 and ivgalvez (and DocScrutinizer05 too) for all their help in the meeting yesterday. As you can see from the meeting logs, it was their determination to find a solution for us that finally met X-Fade's approval. Unfortunately Woody has ended up with some homework to do, but hopefully it will be straightforward and not take up too much of his weekend. So just want you to know it's very much appreciated
I do feel your pain, honestly packaging has always given me problems. But you will get their in the end - the guys here will help And more people will be able to test and enjoy your application too - it will be worth persevering a little longer 
Hopefully we'll have a few more come in, arriving 'fashionably late'.
Sorry to hear about your packaging problems helex, but atleast rfeese isn't alone Even if it doesnt go through the autobuilder, try to build a deb locally and attach it to a post somewhere. And I know what you mean about the big 30.. i'm turning 35 tomorrow and I can't remember .. ugh.. what can I not remember again?.. I forgot! 
By the way, the last packaging I tried to do took me 5 days because of the way Windows handles ASCII encoding for text files that the autobuilder didnt like 
I'll jot it into the Wiki platform column to remind myself
I changed it in the Wiki to be a non-beginner as that was on your submission, however doing Qt projects before doesn't really count - if this is your first project for a Maemo or MeeGo/Harmattan system then you're a beginner to us. Let me know if you need to change it
Did you have any luck with this?

Kojacker,
We discussed this with X-Fade today in #maemo-meeting. His primary concerns were time for setup and the amount of e-mail generated based on last year's CC. I've been able to offer help on both of those, and it seems with a small patch & time I'll donate, we will be able to offer you the use of the voting machine for CC!
There is one caveat: Unlike last year, this time everyone will get one e-mail with a single token. The same token will be usable once in each competition/election. This means you will have to enter the same e-mail and token for each election.
This also waits on X-Fade reviewing/testing the code changes I made to one of the scripts and committing them to SVN. But the changes are rather small, and needed for the next Council/Board combo election too.
It is very likely I will be setting up the voting machine tables for the competition to help reduce the amount of manual work/time X-Fade needs to commit. So when you do have your entry lists, please carbon me (or Council) on the e-mail with the list.

I spent several hours trying to create a package tonight but have not been successful. I'm submitting a tarball. Hopefully that is acceptable.
I tried using the submission form but it didn't seem to work, so I sent mine in via the email address.

It's a shame that we have just a single submission to such an interesting category but in general the interest in the competition is high in all other categories. Btw I had some ideas for location&navigation apps but I didn't have time to implement them.
Hopefully we'll have a few more come in, arriving 'fashionably late'.

Oh jeah, packaging is a pain.

BTW, I'm a bit confused about the deadline:
Is that 9.9.2012 24:00 (UTC) ?
Or, basically, is this countdown right ?
Competition entries must be submitted by 12 midnight on Sunday 9th September (UTC time).
Or, basically, is this countdown right ?
