the problem is that I cannot install that library even if I use the
python way. For example:

[sbox-CHINOOK_ARMEL: ~/flickrapi-0.15] > python2.5 setup.py install

gives me that long list of these errors:

sem_post: Function not implemented
sem_post: Function not implemented
sem_post: Function not implemented
....

I've build essentials on my Ubuntu machine (is the OS I use). Bur I
cannot find the "host-toolchain" package anywhere :(
Where can I find it?

it says:

[sbox-CHINOOK_X86: ~] > sb-conf setup HOST --compiler host-gcc
--devkits=debian-etc,maemo3-tools,perl
sb-conf: No such compiler: host-gcc

how can I do this thing?

but I cannot build the ARMEL version :(

I hope you can give me further information, because I'm missing a lot
of things ;)

Thanks!
