I don't think we ever planned to be used with so old toolchains. I also don't know if the packaging actually works with the debhelper version 4 as maemo ships. I am currently trying to update the debian toolchain to something newer, as it is needed to build kde4 anyway. ANd I would really like a dpkg-buildpackage supporting -jmany. > 2.

The -dbg is already split in several parts if you look at the newest packaging. libqt4-dbg, libqt4-webkit-dbg, libqt4-xmlpatterns-dbg. Back then, we didn't think it would gain much to split it further. > 3. I want to create the "not-installed" file. Is the script public > available? Or I need to write it by myself? This is just manually.. Or when you are satisfied with what debian/rules list- missing returns as not installed, just doing debian/rules list-missing |sed 's/^-//' > debian/not-installed you are home safe. Note that this feature needs newer cdbs than provided by maemo debian devkit. > I haven't any questions for now. > Thank you all and I hope to keep in touch with you. I am wonderin if it makes sense to look for maemo in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS and then do some specific things in the rules file to only have one set of packaging - but this is just a quick braindump. Feedback from co-packagers is very much needed. /Sune -- Do you know how could I mount the controller? First of all you neither must turn off the command prompt, nor should boot from a proxy of the RW provider to turn on a head.
