I'd like to install Python interpreter on Nokia 770. The maemo-wiki warns that repository:

http://repository.maemo.org/, mistral (free, non free)

(which provides Python) is intended to be used only inside development enviroment.

I went to SF page (http://pymaemo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/) and followed the link:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pymaemo/pymaemo-runtime_1.1-1_arm.deb?download

After download I tried to install with Application Manager but no success:

'Package must have "Section:user/FOO" to be considered compatible.'

What am I doing wrong? Does it need other packages? Please, give the trick!

TIA

You can and you should install Python using the repository. I don't know about that warning you mentioned, but at least I have installed Python from that repository and it works just fine.

Yes, you're right! Thanks.

I saw the warning in maemo.org and in the sf-page of python-to-nokia developers.
