Sorry, I'm not familiar with ESbox, but, if you are able to build applications it shouldn't be difficult to build libraries. Both (programs and libraries) use autotools-autoconf stuff. > I already fail at finding the current source: Is it > http://maemo.gitorious.org/hildon/hildon? Or is it > https://garage.maemo.org/scm/?group_id=939? The garage one is a previous-old-legacy repository, the correct one is the gitorious one. So, you can get the code doing something like this: git clone git://gitorious.org/hildon/hildon.git > Needs the source to be put in a certain dir inside the scratchbox? No. In fact, normally to put the source in your home directory. But, sometimes, to make quick tests I use directly the /tmp, and it works fine for me. > > Then do I have to run autogen.sh? In chroot /scratchbox/users/maemo/? Or in > chroot /scratchbox/users/maemo/targets/FREMANTLE_ARMEL? autogen.sh is just a script that execute the configure-related programs, and most of the times are tunned for the specific program. So it is required to be executed in the source directory. Anyway, have you tried something like?: myuse...@mymachine:~$ /scratchbox/login $[sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] > git clone git://gitorious.org/hildon/hildon.git $[sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] > cd hildon $[sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~/hildon] > dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot The debian files are included on the repository. debian/rules will call autogen.sh for you.
