Yes. The wiki is kind of a mess at the moment, and I've been trying to figure all this stuff out by reading code, and asking questions on the mailing list. :) You need to find a directory named "packages" after mokomakefile has set itself up (it should already be in this state if it failed after a few hours of building...) Under "packages" there are *.bb files. They are like debian source packages. If you want to build: foo-1.2.3.bb run: make build-package-foo if you want to patch the source of foo, then look at some package that applies patches, and follow their lead. Editing the source of the application directly doesn't work since bitbake will blow away your changes before compiling. Sometimes the .bb file is named differently than the .ipk file. For example, gst-plugin-ivorbis is built by running: make build-package-gst-plugins-ugly (or maybe "gst-plugins-bad"; I can never remember... ;) I seem to remember mokomakefile pulling in the .bb files on demand, but I could be crazy... If it does pull them in on demand, you'll need to guess the package name (probably 'navit') or do a git checkout of the correct openmoko tree (I don't know the URL off the top of my head...).
