Hi Riku, Good to know you like Python :)
To answer #1: PyMaemo uses 2 install files because Application Manager doesn't support multiple repositories inside a single .install. This limitation is to be fixed in the next release. #2: To upload files to the extras repository you have to follow the steps described at: http://maemo.org/community/wiki/ExtrasRepository It is not so difficult as it seems, just demands a lot of work :) Regards, Luciano Wolf -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of ext Riku Voipio Sent: Thu 28-Jun-07 10:53 To: MoRpHeUz Cc: Maemo developers Subject: Re: New release of Python2.5 for Maemo (r0.4-11) MoRpHeUz wrote: > Great applications like Carman, Konttouri's player and others were > written in python.

It should jsut be a matter of putting ukmp and pymaemo in maemo extras and having a proper install file for ukmp. I see it's not true for now. 1) pymaemo needs clicks on two install files "base repo" and "pymaemo" why? 2) ukmp does not have a install file, but a .deb. according to maintainer uploading to extras is "too hard" ^ those are the issues that need fixing, not adding arbitrary bloat[1] to the base system. Which basically foils down either limits in .install files and/or problems with using garage. Next time someone is going to write a neat ruby application, it needs to be easily installable as well, and you can't solve all dependency problems by adding everything to official(tm) firmware. [1] I do not mean python specifically, which I actually like. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
