Well, yes, building often has different dependencies from installing and I definitely wouldn't recommend forcing dependencies: I was expecting the package to install without problems. But, I did overlook the syslinux dependency: it requires a specific version of syslinux-common (I'm not sure if syslinux itself is used in the MIC process, just pointing this out). Anyway, it does seem that lenny is a bit old for the work you want to do (a syslinux version with isohybrid was released in 2008 but apparently that was too late for lenny). You'll have to do some leg-work to get it working: either install a newer syslinux or patch MIC to make non-hybrid images. I'm guessing MIC developers would welcome a patch that would allow non-hybrid image building as an option... - Jussi _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
