hello everyone!
this is my first post here.
i just completed installing scratchbox on a debian machine.
i have an application written with qt3-3-4. now i need to compile it
in scratchbox in order to run it on an ARM pc (i have already made a
target and verified that hello world runs both in scratchbox emulator
and on the ARM pc). so i think i am set to get (with apt-get or
however else you might suggest) the qt related files, in order to get
qmake,uic,moc and other qt related tools inside scratchbox...

so how do i do that? is there smth similar to aptitude ? or just
apt-get for scratchbox? is there another way?

cause i already tried doing (taken from the install documentation
http://www.scratchbox.org/documentation/user/scratchbox-1.0/html/installdoc.html
)

[sbox-MYTARGET: ~] > apt-get update

but nothing gets downloaded. here is what i get


[sbox-MYTARGET: ~] > apt-get update

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.


note that my /etc/apt/sources.list file contains the following entries:
deb     ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main


then

any idea what is going on wrong here?

also
any idea where can i find the names of qt packages so as to give the
right package name when i try to do apt-get install <some qt related
name> (when i manage to complete the above 2 commands)?

thank you for your help
nass
