[maemo-developers] Python doesn't install in the SDK for me.

[From: George Nachman]

I tried to join the pymaemo list but their sign up seems to be broken, so
I'm hoping someone here knows how to fix the problem or contact those in the
know. I'm trying to follow the instructions at
http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/sdk_installation.html and I got through the
first three, but then apt-get install python2.5* fails:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  python2.5-evas-dev: Depends: python2.5-evas (= 0.1.1-maemo.2) but it is
not installable
E: Broken packages


Here's the contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free
deb file:/home/gnachman/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_3.1 bora explicit
deb file:/home/gnachman/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_3.2 bora explicit
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras bora free non-free


Thanks,
