[maemo-developers] Chinook install

[From: maemo at bitblit.net]

What is the deal with the Chinook install instructions? - they contain 
lots of errors and mistakes it seems to me?

Im trying to install Scratchbox on an Ubuntu box.

I thought since it was like Debian I could just use the script. 

The URL for downloading the script is wrong. I found the correct 
URL and managed to download it. Following the instructions I run the 
install script as root and that fails (with an error saying that the 
script should not be run as root :-)

So I tried to download the packages manually and follow the 
official install docs. The instructions to add a URL to the repository 
also appear to contain the wrong URL - running apt-get update gives me a 
"404 Packages.gz not found" error.

So Im still scratching my head wondering how to install...

Here's what the script produces:

$ sudo ./maemo-sdk-install_4.0.sh 

This script will install maemo SDK 4.0 chinook release to your computer.
