Would be fantastic if we could get this into the repos. Let me know if you need any help along those lines.

@ander_gud
what do you mean by this: "I'm a bit frustrated too - Fremantle could certainly be easier to develop for if Nokia stuck closer to Debian or Ubuntu instead of including so much closed and outdated stuff..."
thx

The closed stuff (graphics, power-management) affects the kernel upgrade path in the long run - and adds security issues...

Older (come on, it's not right to say 'very old') versions of the package tools are not missing much. I have no problems with debhelper or the rest in the versions available in the SDK. The stuff packaged for the old SDK for my N800, bora version, was fine too. I just had to change debian/compat from 5 to 4 now and then, and everything would build fine.

- mypaint uses a newer scons to build (I got around that by using a local copy of scons)
- the debian/rules script are for debhelper 7 (I just commented out the offending parts) SDK and autobuilder uses 5 I think
I would not like to turn the autobuilder into a grinding pulp ;-)
It would also be nice to separate out the Hildon specific changes into debian/patches instead of the diff.gz (help with dpatch or quilt)
All help appreciated!

@anders_gud: as requested, voted for bug in this thread.
FYI, I had to create the account first to vote. Was not a previous member of that community. Do we need more end users contributing to the development feedback or will we NEWBs just muck things up there?
hope that helps in what you need!
