resolv.conf is copied over, however i did notice that the chinook 
repositories were not set up in the sources.list file. So now mine looks 
like this:

deb http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras bora free non-free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras chinook free non-free
deb file:/home/maemo/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.0 chinook explicit

This still didn't allow me to apt-get install libidl-dev so i I checked 
out it of svn and ran dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot . This throw up two 
more dependency issues texinfo and flex. apt-get install texinfo worked. 
However it could not find any information on the flex package. Do i need 
to add another repository or can i check it out and build it myself?
