[maemo-developers] Install/Run Issues With Scratchbox

[From: Dr. Nicholas Shaw]

All, 

 

In advance, I apologize for the length of this e-mail but I wanted to make
sure you all have all the details of what I've done to get scratchbox
up-and-running.

 

I decided to give scratchbox another shot.  Before re-installing using the
install script, I tried once more to create a new target (test), I'm
concerned that what shows on my screen is not what shows in the demo screen
(installdoc) and I'm wondering if this could be part of my problem:

 

.         Installdoc:  <Select compiler> arm-gcc-., i686-gcc-. (these, I
know, are compilers)

.         My Scratchbox: <Select compiler> cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-arm,
cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-i386 (these appear to be lib files but not the actual
compiler)

 

 

There are the packages (Chinook) that I installed  (note there doesn't
appear to be a compiler):

 

.         scratchbox-core 1.0.8

.         scratchbox-libs 1.0.8

.         scratchbox-devkit-cputransp 1.0.3

.         scratchbox-devkit-debian 1.0.9

.         scratchbox-devkit-doctools 1.0.7

.         scratchbox-devkit-maemo3 1.0.1

.         scratchbox-devkit-perl 1.0.4

.         scratchbox-toolchain-cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-arm 1.0.7.2

.         scratchbox-toolchain-cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-i386 1.0.7

 

These are packages stated in INSTALL.txt for Chinook and what, I believe,
the install script installs.  I have VDSO disabled via /etc/sysctl.conf.

 

Ok, so manual install doesn't appear to have worked so I once again tried
the install script.  BTW, I'm running Debian 4R3 and I installed gcc/g++
afterwards and I tested it by compiling a program and it works.

 

When I ran the install script, I ran "sh maemo-sdk-install_4.0.1.sh -y" and
for package selection chose 4 (Runtime Environment + All Dev and Dbg
Packages).  For "Install Closed Nokia Binaries" I chose "Yes".  Oh, yes, and
I accepted the license and installation began.

 

As it started to run I received an error (this is my usual error with the
install script): "Failed to fetch
http://repository.maemo.org/dists/chinook/non-free/binary-armel/Packages.gz
Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1) followed by:

 

E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.

E: Unable to run 'apt-get update' on the target.

E: Please correct any network problems.

E: Scratchbox login returned error 100.

 

When I kept getting this the first few times, I manually downloaded these
files, and followed the install process for 'other Linux'.  This process
culminates in running "run_me_first.sh" and upon completion the file
".run_me_first_done" was created.  Thus, based upon the instructions, I've
done everything.  What am I missing?

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated! J

Thanks,

 

Nick.
