[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Building deb packages for the Nokia 770 is very easy

[From: Xavier Calbet]

  Thanks for the page, very nice. But could you
please extend the '...also simple to build one'
section a bit more and write an
idiot proof step by step
command line series of what to do after
you have a compiled an application running on the
Nokia? I would greatly appreciate this as
the complicated deb packaging is holding
me back from making them. I really think your
method is much easier than the dpkg-buildpackage
approach.

  I have had problems with the regular
building of packages with dpkg-buildpackage, etc.
When I reach the "..as described in the 
new maintainer guide.." I get lost. Does any
novice 
really find this guide useful?
I also get lost in the "but removing lots of stuff
that the 770 doesn't need or can't
  handle" because I do not know what the 770
cannot handle, unless I do trial and error 
(and of course that takes forever).

  By the way I am trying to build the deb packages
for perl/PDL which should make the Nokia770
a powerful calculator with graphics. I already
have the code running on the Nokia 770.

  Thanks,

  Xavier Calbet
