[maemo-users] Need Some Scratchbox Help

[From: Dr. Nicholas Shaw]

Ok, I've installed (via "other Linux" process) scratchbox and ran
"run_me_first.sh".  I've setup the sbox group and user and have run sb-menu.
So I think I'm good to go.  However, I need to compile/install sqlite3 on
the 810 which requires a C++ compiler (I don't think the scratchbox will
help here).   Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

 

Nick.

Sorry, one last piece of information.  I went to /var/lib/apt/lists and here
are the files relating to scratchbox:

 

.         Scratchbox.org_debian_dists_maemo4-sdk_Release

.         Scratchbox.org_debian_dists_maemo4-sdk_main_binary-i386_Packages

 

Again, thanks!

 

Nick.

Good morning (where I am anyway) all!

 

I'm running Debian 4R3.  I went to Maemo.org/developers and downloaded/ran
the scratchbox script according to the INSTALL.TXT.   I'm installing Chinook
as that is the version of 2008 I'm running.  The install file is
"maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.1.sh.  As root, I ran chmod a+x on the file
then ran it.

 

It checks for prerequisites and states that everything seems to  be ok.  The
script continues until it gets to "Ign http://scratchbox.org ./ Packages
where I receive an error 404 Not Found.  The script continues until the next
error, "Failed to fetch http://scratchbox.org/debian/./Packages.gz
<http://scratchbox.org/debian/Packages.gz>  404 Not Found" followed by "W:
Couldn't stat source package list http://scratchbox.org ./ Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/scratchbox.org_debian_._Packages) - stat (2 No such file
or directory).

 

The last line recommended trying an alternative installation method.  Ok, so
I chose to install it manually.

 

After downloading the appropriate files, I followed the instructions
(http://scratchbox.org/documentation/user/scratchbox-1.0/html/installdoc.htm
l#AEN39).  As root, I first added "deb http://scratchbox.org/debian
<http://scratchbox.org/debian%20./>  ./" to /etc/apt/sources.list.  I then
ran "apt-get update".  All seemed to be ok up to this point.  I then ran
apt-get install on the packages and failed on the same error as when I ran
the install script.

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated! And, in advance - THANK YOU! 

 

Nick.
