Thanks Timo, I'm wanting to install gnue-forms on my phone for some database work. When I didn't have mxdate time installed at all, I would run the gnue-forms installation script and it would complain, predictably, that I hadn't met the requirements.
I apt-get installed it onto my ubuntu laptop and copied the produced files onto the phone, the application now tells me that I have the *wrong* mxdate time installed: r...@om-gta02:~/gnue-forms-0.6.1# python setup.py install running install checking GNUe Common Library checking mxDateTime library *** You don't have the (right) mxDateTime binaries installed ! --- Could not import the mx.DateTime package. Please install mxDateTime from the mxtools suite. The file 'INSTALL' contains more information about dependencies. r...@om-gta02:~/gnue-forms-0.6.1# I can produce the same results with: r...@om-gta02:~/gnue-forms-0.6.1# python Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Oct 14 2008, 01:51:25) [GCC 4.1.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import mx.DateTime *** You don't have the (right) mxDateTime binaries installed !

Perhaps I could replace it with a compiled binary from the Openmoko debian distribution and it would work? All I would have to do then is get Debian to work on my openmoko ;-) Cheers, Joseph 2008/12/12 Timo Juhani Lindfors <[email protected]>: > "Joseph Reeves" <[email protected]> writes: >> Has anyone had any joy installing Egenix mx base on openmoko? >> Specifically I need mxDateTime, but I'm not having any luck getting >> anything installed: > > Not sure how much this helps with openmoko distro but with debian > mxdatetime seems to install just fine on the phone: > > li...@ginger$ sudo apt-get install python-egenix-mxdatetime > Reading package lists...
