[maemo-developers] invalid Release files in repository.maemo.org

2006-11-01 Thread Rafael Espíndola

The Release files (http://repository.maemo.org/dists/mistral/Release
for example) don't include the necessary checksums.

The Release files in tableteer are ok
(http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/dists/mistral/Release).

Not having the checksums breaks debootstrap.

Rafael

 Well, my (implied) point was you are asking on a list that is hosted by Nokia 
 and has a significant number of Nokian subscribers. The link you gave was to 
 a Sony device that looks like a competitor of the 770.

I think competitors are welcome and even encouraged to the list, that's
the point of open source -- even competitors are supposed to co-
operate ;)

Re: [maemo-developers] unused packages marked as required

2006-11-01 Thread Frantisek Dufka

Rafael Espíndola wrote:

The packages bash, coreutils, debianutils, gzip, sed, tar, util-linux
and procps are not used, but they are marked as required. This breaks
the bootstrap since busybox conflicts with them.



I think  both problems stem from the fact that the repository is 
primarily set up for scratchbox environment not the device and those are 
things that differ. In scratchbox busybox is not used. Instead same job 
is done by those conflicting utilities.

[maemo-developers] small changes to the dependencies to make debootstrap work

2006-11-01 Thread Rafael Espíndola

debootstrap dependency computation is not very smart, so I had to make
some changes to get debootstrap to work:

1) remove debconf dependency on debconf-i18n (only debconf-english is available)
2) replace sysvinit dependency on coreutils with busybox
3) replace osso-af-utils dependency on osso-icons with sdk-default-icons

[maemo-developers] i386 dbus init.d script checks for an ARM cpu

2006-11-01 Thread Rafael Espíndola

The /etc/init.d/dbus script contain the line

echo `uname -m` | grep ^armv  /dev/null

This causes the script to fail when run on a i386 (because of a set
-e at the top).

[maemo-developers] OBEX server

2006-11-01 Thread Andrew Barr
Is there documentation somewhere on using OBEX servers on the Nokia 770? I 
have installed sobexsrv and am having difficulties connecting to the device 
from my laptop. There doesn't seem to be any documentation on the Maemo wiki 
for this usage mode.

I got this to work once: running sobexsrv on the 770 and using
gnome-obex-send to push files to it from my laptop.

It was kinda tricky.  I had to modify the example Python script
distributed with sobexsrv.  I sent my modifications to the author, and
I'm pretty sure sobexsrv should now work out of the box, if you can
figure out the command line.

Note that, last time I checked, installing sobexsrv didn't start the
server itself; you had to start it manually from xterm.
