How can we make a armel package?

[sandbox]

which kind of package can we install on N800? application_i386.deb or application_armel.deb?

When I run dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot under armel target, I got the error message:
mmap: Permission denied
dpkg-architecture: failure: dpkg --print-architecture failed:
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: dpkg-architecture gave error exit status 255

Who can tell me how to make a armel package.?

Thanks!

I could be wrong but I think you need scratchbox on some other Linux box to create armel packages compatible with the tablet. If the application is a debian armel package you might be better off using Qole's easy debian package and install whatever debian package you want in Qole's debian image.

Or use py2deb package python app :)

You can install "application_armel.deb"
On which linux version (host) are you running scratchbox?

I hope to know how to make armel package with scratchbox.

"On which linux version (host) are you running scratchbox?"

You should read the INSTALL (http://repository.maemo.org/stable/4.1/INSTALL.txt)file.
