So at some point my replies stopped going to the list... I must have clicked the wrong button.
I have now got packages building and submitted to the autobuildbot (and tested working on my device) so it seems the advice was a success. So the question is, should the wiki then be updated to reflect the different build-environment setup instructions that actually work on modern systems? Likewise, how can the maemo-sdk-install_5.0.sh script linked from these instructions be updated? I accept that it is effectively dead platform but I know there is much community involvement still, and until I get an N950 dev device I'm still going to be actively using and developing (or at least maintaining) for my N900.
