[maemo-developers] unable to install debian package on N770

[From: harini satyanarayanan]

Hi,
   I am new to maemo and N770. I am currently using the OS 2006 on the N770
and Ubuntu on my laptop on which the maemo scratchbox environment is
set-up.  I am trying to port some sample application/program onto the N770.
I actually created a debian package(inside the sbox) of the sample
hello-world-gtk program to see if I can port it to the N770, but when i use
the Application manager to install the debian package it says "unable to
install incomplete package". I am not sure about the cause of this error.

I initially built a i386 debian package, so i thought probably it was
beacuse i need an Armel debian package, so i also built an Armel package,
but still the same prolem exists. I did read in one of the forums, that
since all these packages are created inside the sbox, it dosent matter  if
it is an i386 debian package or a Armel package both would install on the
N770.

Can some one please help me resolve this issue. also if anyone has any links
about porting new applications to the N770, please forward them, I wasn't
able to find much on it.

Thanks in Advance!!!!!

Thanks,
Harini
