It should be possible but it would require a lot of work.

First of all - as far as i know Debian prefers native compiling. Compiling on 
the device takes a lot of time (days?) if it's even possible. Our build system 
if targeted for cross compiling.

Second problem could be QT. I dont know if the QT in debian supports running 
on framebuffer. Now we bundle framebuffer enabled QT with Qtopia. This works 
quite good because the QT is at fixed version which we know that it works. 
Running with older/newer QT's need to be tested and any old/new bugs in those 
QT version have to be fixed.

So the answer is - yes, it should be possible, but it's unlikely to happen 
unless someone with good skills and a lot of time jumps in.

apt sources latest qtmoko

2010-04-01 Thread alfa21
hello,
I've qtmoko v19 on my gta02 now (was shr), it's very rensponsive and i like it. 
:) 

just a question:

why in apt sources i can only find v15?
is qtmoko.meurisse.org the right one to use in debian?

kind regards!
ps: writing emails in qtmoko messages, if you touch the text to move the cursor 
(or select words), you loose the keyboard and it's impossible to edit again! :(

I am doing just jffs2/tar.gz images. I dont enough time to create and maintain 
.deb packages. You can try to ask Vicent to include more recent packages. Or 
someone else wants to do it?

 kind regards!

Hmm strange - i believe this was fixed. Do you see the white triangle for 
changing input methods in right upper corner?

if you (qtmoko devs) tell me which is the right path to follow or
better if you can give an initial script to generate the .deb package
I could do this for you.
btw... if possible, why not include qtmoko in real debian tree? (like fso do?)

[QTMoko] Debian packages for v19 (was: apt sources latest qtmoko)

The simple reason is that I've been quite busy lately and never found the time 
to update it. Moreover, as the version on my phone is working quite well, and 
as my neo became my primary phone, I feel less like messing with my phone.

The other reason is that the script to build the packages is really a peace of 
crap. It's only unziping the binary archive to repackage it in a debian 
package. I tried to make proper debian package from source but I never got it 
working.

I created the package for the v19 but I have absolutely no time to test it 
before the WE. I hope it will not break your phone. Don't forget to backup 
your data before updating. The url for testing is qtmoko-test.meurisse.org. 
Any feedback (good or bad) would be appreciated.
I will test the update myself over the WE and move the packages to 
qtmoko.meurisse.org if everything is fine.

PS: I will be more than happy to see qtmoko in the standard debian tree. 
However one as to create real packages building from source to see it 
happening.

 Don't forget to backup your data before updating.

BTW is there a procedure documented somewhere on how to proceed
to backup all contact datas + history + installed packages etc ?
