Scratchbox offline ?
 
The scratchbox.org site and its repositories seems to be down.
Does anybody know if that is temporarily (that site was Nokia sponsored) ?
Is there a mirror of the data on Scratchbox.org somewhere?

Does somebody know of a mirror?

Unfortunately, it seems another one bites the dust thanks to Mr E :(
EDIT : interesting that both PowerPC & MIPS targets are experimental...could that mean Nokia was working on something based on these platforms?

Scratchbox2 is an active project.

Can Scratchbox2 replace the Scratchbox?
How would the Debian packages be named?

I can not belief that there seems to be no mirror at all, but even after intensive search, I could not find one :(

Maybe someone still has the packages in the apt-cache?

I hat to remove Scratchox to upgrade my Kubuntu, and now I can not install it again :(
Well, I still have a disk image of the old installation, so as a last ressort I could reload that one and rebuild the deb packages, I think that is somehow possible. But for sure not the nices way... :(

I'm not sure if anyone used it for Maemo. I know it's being used for Mer as a cross compilation tool.

In general it's probably a good idea to switch to Mer anyway, since it's an active way forward, comparing to Maemo itself.

I still use it quite often to pack my Python Harmattan pacages.
Its way faster than upload them to the OBS-Buildserver.
