[maemo-developers] Chinook rootstraps and scratchbox2

[From: Miko Nieminen]

Hi,

You can find everything quite easily under: http://repository.maemo.org/

I'm not using install scripts either and finding those rootstraps isn't the
only problem. It would be nice if those rootstraps would contain proper set
of packages so that you don't have to do any dummy package hacks after
creating a new target. Though I don't know if chinook has this problem which
we have with 3.x rootstraps. I haven't been testing sb2, but I can easily
see some problems coming from those missing dependencies.
