Hello all,
I am new to linux env and Maemo as well, recently I setup the scratchbox and I am ready to do some coding myself. I am thinking to use Python and I had some third party libraries downloaded with .tar.gz (I also have .zip format) format. I login to the scratchbox and extract it to a folder, say, "TestLibrary". It has a setup.py file, however I got problem using "python setup.py install" due to some permission issue. I am new to python too, I assume the library only contain certain .py files and I would like to know how can I put those files "manually" inside scratchbox that could help to setup a proper environment for me to do coding?
I know it would sound stupid to ask the question but I really dont know how to start. Thanks a lot.
