After setting up a 32 bit chrooted environment, I installed Maemo SDK+ and then ran "sudo maemo-sdk --mirror ftp.be.debian.org install tools etch-2008" (using a mirror). The downloads were successful, but in the end this was output:
Code:
Running as user root... yes
Not running as user root inside fakeroot... yes
Running outside of scratchbox... yes
Running on Linux kernel... yes

debootstrap tool in path... /usr/sbin/debootstrap
Install path is sane... yes

E: Couldn't download Debian Repository file

I was in fact running as root.

[EDIT] I just removed the use of a mirror, and it worked. At least, it made more progress.

This is the next problem:

Strange that tex live is being installed. Why would the Maemo SDK+ require LaTeX?

Hi jgombos,

Did you resolve this further?

I'm getting the same error as you "E: Couldn't download Debian Repository file" and cannot get past this. Running as root, no mirror. I am, however, behind a proxy which I have set with 'maemo-sdk set proxy'.

Trying to install on debian sid.

Code:
viper:~# sudo maemo-sdk install tools lenny-2009-1

I wrote a detailed wiki on this:

http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_SDK%2B_i...an_%28AMD64%29

Essentially the issue is that SDK+ only works on 32bit platforms.

Bummer re your missing Wiki entry. Ended up finding the missing ingredient (hidden inside the maemo-sdk script):

Note that when installing behind HTTP proxy, make sure that sudo propagates 'http_proxy' environment variable to super-user shell. At least sudo in debian is configured so that it doesn't do this so you might want to do following:

% sudo env http_proxy="http://myproxy:myport" maemo-sdk install ..

or something similar.
Kindof odd it didn't work in my root shell when I already had that environment variable configured..


Another thing missing when following the instructions (http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/install-debian.html) is that the dependencies for maemopad first need to be installed into the scratchbox2 environment before it can be compiled. Ah well, early days I suppose

I found my wiki article, and revised my post above.

The wiki was there all along, it's just not straight forward to navigate to it on this site.

Anyway, looks like your issue was totally different. My issue turned out being that SDK+ is 32 bit only, and I was on a 64 bit arch.
