[maemo-developers] Microb browser and GTK configuration

[From: Tomàs Jiménez Lozano]

Thank you, Josh.

I am now trying to build just microb-eal library.

I've downloaded sources form svn repository but I am stuck in
dependencies issues:


[sbox-CHINOOK_ARMEL] > dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

dpkg-buildpackage: source package is microb-eal
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 0.2.4-1
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Oleg Romashin
<oleg.romashin at nokia.com>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture armel
dpkg-buildpackage: source version without epoch 0.2.4-1
: Using Scratchbox tools to satisfy builddeps

dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: browser-eal-dev (>=
0.0.1) | maemo-browser-eal-dev (>= 1.5.0) osso-ic-dev libgtkmozembed-dev


dpkg-buildpackage: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.
dpkg-buildpackage: (Use -d flag to override.)




I've no idea on where to get those browser-eal-dev,
maemo-browser-eal-dev or osso-ic-dev-dev.

They seem to have not been included in the Chinook repository and I
can't find them in the garage.maemo.org SVN repository.

Any ideas on where to find them?
(Trying to skip this dependencies with -d flag failed too.)


About that libgtkmozembed-dev package that also appears in the
dependencies list I supposed that building libgtkmozembed source code
from SVN repository would generate it but compilation failed.

Has anyone been able to build it?

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!
