[maemo-developers] Installing Python2.5-gtk and Python2.5-hildon on the N800

[From: Devraj Mukherjee]

Hi everyone,

I am developing a Python GTK/Hildon application, and everything works
well in Scratchbox. I am trying to get my application running on the
device with out creating a debian package (since I am still developing
the app and would like to debug stuff on the device).  I managed to
install Python 2.5 binaries on the device itself and run the
application.

But (there's always a but) it seems that my N800 is missing the GTK
and Hildon libraries for Python2.5. I tried to find these packages in
Application Manager and they don't seem to exists. Then I tried to use
apt-get on the command line and it seems I can't get root access.

Any ideas how I can go about installing the Python2.5 support
libraries? Thanks a lot for your time.

PS I am using the Chinook SDK
