Generally, it is not expected that every author of any software can create proper Debian packages – after all, some work must be left for Debian maintainers. So if you think your package is out of the “I only need testers, but no users yet”-stage, feel free to contact pkg-fso-ma...@lists.alioth.debian.org and tell us about your program, we might package it for you. If you want to make stuff easy for us, follow these also otherwise valid rules: * If you use automake, use "make dist" to create release tarballs. Make sure these contain everything. If you install additional data, make sure they are properly installed by make install. * If you package a python application or module, same thing applies, only that you use ./setup.py sdist to create a tarball- * If your package is just files (e.g. shell scripts and data), just tar them up and write in INSTALL where these should go. * Files in /usr/bin/ should not have endings like .sh or .py, these are ugly when called from the shell and against Debian policy. * Put copyright and licensing statements in all source files, and indicate where your icons are coming from and what license they are under.

Note that although we currently have e17 in your (or pkg-fso’s) repository, you should plan your modifications outside that package, as we later want to be able to use the normal Debian package. I don’t know anything about e17, but it should ideally be a separate package, or a default configuration file installed by our installer into /root/.e*.

SHR packages for Debian are in the make. They will include ophonekitd. Once that’s done (I was about to make an estimate, but, well, I better don’t :-)), packaging pyhonelog should be easily possible. But anything that requires ophonekit will require you not to use zhone, but the SHR dialer (I think). Maybe the pyphonelog author should consider talking to frameworkd directly.

What can it be, have anybody seen this? In fact, I have. I observed this when I was trying to modify the uBoot environment from the device, in the Debian installer. I wanted to provide a way to completely do the installation from on the device. But after my changes, I have seen the problems that you have, so I wrote the configure-uboot.sh script. You can still see my work in the debian installer, by running $ ./install.sh uboot which runs the code (it is not normally run by ./install.sh all). If it turns out that the reason was just pure accident (or something), and not the fact that I was modifying from on the device, we could enable this and make the Debian installation even easier.

But generally, it’s advisable to re-use existing code – in this case, instead of re-coding the applications, it would have been more beneficial to the general community to make sure that twitux and it’s dependencies are built in openembedded. But that’s just my opinion, and again, don’t be discouraged by this.

See http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/openmoko-panel-plugin.git;a=blob;f=setup.py;h=d6056f95561b9a8f4f602fc968e0bc8e6ca7a18b;hb=HEAD as an example. * Using this setup.py, you can create proper and consistent tar-balls using "./setup.py sdist". Make sure that you set the version number corresponding, and check that all required files are included. Given such a sdist-created tarball, one can easily make a low-maintenance Debian package out of it, and also other distributions can pick it up more easily than with an uncommon way of distribution your software. Additionally, while reading through your code, I’m wondering (please don’t take this personally): Does TwitterMoko have any advantages over existing projects such as twitux? What are it’s distinct features? Is there a good reason to fork and launch curl for each access, passing all parameters via the commandline and possibly not fully escaped, and blocking on the output of curl, instead of using some asynchronous http library directly? Also, the config should be saved in, say ~/.twittermoko.cfg, instead of a global place, and probably created with mode 660 (who knows, someone might actually have a guest ssh login to his FreeRunner :-) I hope this does not discourage you from working on TwitterMoko, but give you some hints on how to improve it – but I think befor inclusion in Debian, things have to evolve a litte bit.

I took this as an encouragement to hack slightly on your code, so I did
a slightly larger modification. The diff is here:
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/openmoocow.git;a=commitdiff;h=6c2116a1df2bb5ff54754f87fc8eb216fe355dd2
And the patch comment is
“Slight refactorization: The decision, whether a moo should happen, is
moved to the driver-specific code (because it knows best what kind of
device to expect). A member “state” is added to the accel struct which
can be used to implement a state machine inside the driver (as was done
before with pos).”
One could probably change the -1000 and 1000 values in the freerunner
driver now to 0 and 1, to indicate the two states (upside down or not),
but I didn’t want to be too intrusive :-)
I have attached the complete diff against your release.
Greetings,
Joachim

[debian] “Official” installer revision now always in git
Hi, just a quick announcement from the Debian folks. Because we continually improve the installer script, it turned out to be most useful if everyone uses the latest version. Therefore, the official place to get the source is now http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/files.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh The old URL at http://pkg-fso.alioth.debian.org/freerunner/install.sh can still be used (it might be easier to type if you can’t copy’n’paste, and wget will save it under a nice name), as it’s just a redirect to the URL mentioned above. Notable changes are: * The use of the general auto-login script “nodm” instead of zhone-session. Session configuration can now be done by modifying /root/.xsession. * Device independent frameworkd and accompanying configuration packages. If apt-get upgrade breaks your FreeRunner, try to run apt-get install fso-config-gta02 * openmoko-panel-plugin installed by default (running in trayer), to provide keyboard toggle and device control. * The use of the packaged kernel instead of wget/tar. To get this going, run apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-openmoko-gta02 Most of these are due to Luca “Gismo” Capello’s great work.

Without knowing what goes wrong, try this unreleased version of the installer: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/files.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh;h=HEAD;hb=HEAD It will install the kernel from a Debian package (and not with wget/tar), maybe then your problem does not occur.

This will go away once milestone4 is out, as then zhone will suspend upon a very short press, but not after a longer press. One could argue that zhone should not do suspend at all if openmoko-panel-plugin is installed.

I know, and I don’t like the situation either. Some important mails are only sent to one list, other discussions are cross-posted to more than one list and every second mail I read I have read twice. I consider pkg-fso to be strictly related to Debian _packaging_ issues. In that sense, the mail was sent appropriately (as it was a request for inclusion in Debian), but a separate release-announcement for the general audience to smartphone-userland would have been good, I guess. But I think this stuff will settle after a while. At least I don’t think that adding or removing mailinglists, or putting up written (and soon outdated) guidelines helps. But yes, every user of Debian on the FreeRunner is invited to join pkg-fso if they want to know about the issues we have, about new developments etc. Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

And it does indeed just start ~/.xsession (if no desktop environment is installed), where the installer puts the default zhone startup. to switch, just run (via ssh, because it will kill your X server) apt-get --purge remove zhone-install apt-get install nodm and put a suitable session in ~/.xsession Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Maybe I’m a bit off, but last time I looked SHR did not have a readily working dialer app. And is tichy more than a proof of concept? Anyways, if there is user interest, nothing stands in the ways of packaging more dialers than zhone (as long as they use the FSO frameworkd, at least).

Does FSO auto-suspend? If so, since what version? Generally, we try not to diverge too much from the FSO image, so if there are problems with Debian that are also present in FSO, then they probably ought to be tackled there first.

The installer, as it currently sits in git, will install and run trayer (a minimal system tray) and openmoko-panel-plugin in the default installation.

Thanks for your contributions to the wiki. But please do not use the
Wiki page as medium for discussion. The page is already too large
anyways, and having TODO items and unanswered questions on it does not
help the user.
Instead, please post the questions on one of the mailing lists, discuss

From what I’ve seen while coding the GUI (which is commited now), I think the reason why there is a timeout is that if there is not, the POWER press that you use to wake up the phone will be detected again...

Zhone with visual suspend feedback, Was: FSO milestone3 my view (ON gta01)

I have just created a patch that gives zhone visual feedback when suspending. This will, in that order highlight four bars on the screen: “keep pressed”, “let go”, “suspending” and “waking up”. They are highlighted when the user pushes down POWER, when he has pushed it for one second, when he releases it in time and when the phone wakes up. This also has the effect that keeping it pressed for more than three seconds it will _not_ suspend, as to not interfere with a shutdown or restart triggered by the Altr-Ctrl-Del sent this way. I’ll soon submit that for inclusion, so maybe that problem will be resolved as well.

milestone3 available in Debian
Hi, tonight we have packaged the new versions of zhone and frameworkd and adjusted the (slightly improved) installer script to install the FSO milestone3 kernel. So if you are running Debian already, you get the new stuff by running apt-get update; apt-get -u upgrade If you are not yet running Debian, you can follow the instructions on http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner That said, I didn’t very thoroughly test the new versions, so it might be that you stumble upon stupid mistakes from me. Please let us know (at the smartphone-userland[1] mailing list, where most Debian related discussion take place) if you find any. Besides these new versions you might be interested to hear that remoko and pypennotes have been packaged for Debian, and fso-gpsd makes sure all gpsd-using applications (such as tangogps) work also. We still don’t have Illume, as we are still waiting for new Enlightenment libs being released and packaged for Debian. Greetings, Joachim for the pkg-fso team.

Well, just to make it easy for Debian, until we have the latest libs, I applied this patch: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/remoko.git;a=blobdiff;f=remoko/remoko;h=f7cdc95bfab86f2e1946daf7c4f6c332f7e6106d;hp=9ecddfef4124e95aeded37cf3e390a589af50dfb;hb=2e969b0985544f324877d06ceba8c5de797ac6a6;hpb=1d988ea1efd08b3a17a7e7f7e5348354d10d74df It should not break it for anyone else, but makes it usable for us.

But at the moment, you start it from remoko, and you kill it in remoko. What would the advantage be if remoko-server runs permanently?

Ok, I got your program working (a bit, Debian users see [1]), and now I understand what you need the remoko-server for: It’s not something that runs permanently, or as a system daemon, but it’s a helper that you run to do stuff you can’t do in python, right? To avoid having different packages for that, and possibly opening security holes by using TCP, I’d recommend to pack that functionality in a C file and include that in your python process using cython. This is what the zhone developers did to do some stuff that python can’t (modifying X window atoms). > Yes, I already made more code, but right now I don't have time and > concentration until I finish my last exam (16 Set) :( Is this code in the subversion?

Sorry for not being clear: I did not try to compile directly from the svn checkout. Instead, I have built a release tarball with make dist, but this tarball does not work because it is missing some files, e.g. accelneo.h. There is a way to tell automake what files to include in a release tarball, but I don’t know a lot about automake yet. Having a working "make dist" is not really critical, but it’s a sign of good automake packaging, and it allows you to easily create release tarballs. Also, "make distcheck" is useful.

Here are some issues that you might want to look into, to make ReMoko easily packagable. * The setup.py could be improved.

Something like sys.env['HOME'] + "settings.cfg" might be more sensible. * The server source looks good, “make dist” produces a sensible tarball. You might want to change the product name and version number in configure.ac though. * What exactly is the server for? It seems it listens on a tcp socket for commands, which is connected by the UI to send the events over bluetooth. Why don’t you bind to the 127.0.0.1 IP address? Why don’t you use dbus for that?

Then I’ll continue > with packaging it. While I’m at it, here are some packaging related suggestions: * Check for the existence of your dependencies in configure. E.g. I could run configure without having libbluetooth2-dev installed, only to have “make” fail. * Please install everything using automake, including configuration etc. This avoids duplication and diversion between accelges_svn.bb, the Debian packaging and other distros. * Do not install files with an ending “.sh” in the path. This is against Debian policy, and ugly as well :-) * Do you really need the various -neo2.sh, -neo3.sh wrappers? Why not have one wrapper that reads cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep Hardware? * You install the acceleration data into /etc in your bb recipe. This is uncommon for binary data. If it’s data that is going to be modified by programs while running, it should go to /var/lib. Or better, put distributed files in /usr/share and create additional data in /var/lib. I guess that’s quite a large list. But I think it’s what turn a private project into a proper program. BTW, what are you plans now that GSOC is over? Are you continuing the development of accelges?

Re: Alpha 2 Release of Accelerometer-based Gestures, and Screen Orientation

I was about to package accelgel for Debian. I exported the latest svn, tried to generate a clean source tarball with $ autogen.sh && make dist and tried to use the resulting .tar.gz to build the package. Unfortunately, it seems that the generated tarball is not complete, for example it misses ./accelneo/include/accelneo.h Would you do me a favour and provide an “official” source tarball of your release, preferably one created by “make dist”? Then I’ll continue with packaging it.

It should be possible by doing the partitioning yourself, and then configuring the uboot enviroment to your liking. For each uboot menu entry, you can decide where the kernel should be loaded from, and what partition the kernel should use as the root partition. This gives you all options, I think.

It’s not really a distro (in the Openmoko speak) of it’s own, but a different underlying system for openmoko distros. At the moment, we ship the software from the FSO stack, but hopefully we’ll also have, for example, the Stable Hybrid Release software in our archive. So for now, Debian is a different way of installing FSO, which takes more space and provides more programs :-) Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Unfortunately, I don’t have an idea what’s causing it, but I’d be thankful if you can debug it :-) You could test it with two instances of apmd and no X running, for example. Maybe the kernel just doesn’t like two apps listening on /dev/apm_bios.

Did you install Debian using the official installer script? It comes with a calibration file that should work...

There are already too many lists, and it’s hard to draw a clear separation between them. And with distributions it’s not clear either. Some bugs or ideas, although discovered on 2008.8, apply also to FSO. Debian, for example, is just another base running FSO, so most Debian related mails are also FSO related. With exception of those by people running xfce. Unless, of course, it’s X server related...

The url is very creative: http://www.emdebian.org/ :-) emdebian, AFAIK, does * provide cross-compilation * reduces package size by removing documentation * changes some compile options to further reduce package size The last point makes it, in corner cases, problematic to mix with the official archive. Also, emdebian does not cover all of the archive yet. At the moment, emdebian does not support python, because python seems to be hard to cross-compile, therefore we base our system for FreeRunner on the official Debian for now. Eventually, when emdebian can run all the apps that we need (well, python should be the only problem), it will also be able to run the FreeRunner specific package, which by then are in the official archive. I’m sure someone, maybe us, maybe the emdebian guys will provide an installer or image based on emdebian. This will give users the choice between the two. I hope that clarifies some points.
