For a few days I am trying to get a development environment together with python for maemo devices.

But no matter what I do I just dont get it to work.

I am windows user so I needed my time to set up Ubuntu + Maemo SDK + Scratchbox.

I followed this page: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...ions_for_maemo

but whenever I try to install the python sdk I am just getting that the package couldnt be found. Countless hours of google didnt really help me either to find out whats wrong...

I also tryed Pluthon but with eclipse 3.3 there seem to be some weird erros and with 3.4 the testprogramm hangs of while transfering.

Or is there a perfect in all in one solution anyone could recommend to finally get everything together ...?

You probably didn't get SDK installed properly. The page you linked has link to installation instructions, but they are for one step older release than the current one.

Here is the newest SDK http://maemo.org/development/sdks/maemo_4-1-2_diablo/

Check that your SDK /etc/apt/sources.list has

Code:
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/sdk free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/sdk free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/tools free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/tools free

deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel diablo free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel diablo free
and then
Code:
apt-get update; apt-get install python2.5-sdk

Not being a linux user I assumed the sourcelist would be in my scratchbox folder. (just reading correctly might help ...).

Uhm I just added all links but nothing changed:



Anything else I could or have done wrong?

OK, I wasn't very specific. You added repositories to wrong /etc/apt/sources.list

edit /etc/apt/sources.list in that scratchbox@desktop window. For example type (to scratchbox window)
Code:
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
and then add missing repositories

You should also remove repository.maemo.org entries from "Software Sources" window so that you don't accidentally hose your ubuntu installation.
