Re: [Announce/WIP][Alpha] MeeCoLay - run Harmattan apps on Fremantle!
 

As MeeCoLay is still dirty and user-unfriendly, I'm thinking about making a tool which would convert the MeeGo installer to a Fremantle installer (move some files and etc.) so that it's just a one-click-install. (or at least easier setup than now with some progs)

But I don't know how much motivation I'll have ;)
Would you donate for such interface (I plan both full Qt GUI and command-line tools) and if yes, how much would you donate?

I think you do great work marmistrz. How will it be easier exactly? I think the thing that would make it easier is when you install an app or game an icon is created without having to use the workaround. Just my 2 cents :)

Re: [Announce/WIP][Alpha] MeeCoLay - run Harmattan apps on Fremantle!
 

well i dont have anything to give but best of luck and god bless you for successful result.

Re: [Announce/WIP][Alpha] MeeCoLay - run Harmattan apps on Fremantle!
 

So this is my vision.

You get a GUI interface. You select a .deb, set whether it should be installed straight away with Hildon App. Mgr., or whether you want just a Fremantle-compatible .deb (e.g. to install it with dpkg).
Beside this, you select whether you want to download exact differences or use the built-in algorithm which should work in most cases.

The modified debs will have the icons in the right places and .desktop files (icons in the menu) already fixed.
The .desktop files will be fixed too. They'll have a forced rotation workaround already applied (X-CSSU-Force-Landscape=true) and executables will be launched via meecolay.

Users will be able to send me the "diffs" between original and wanted versions so that they are included in the MeeCoLay database.

There'll be a command line interface, hopefully.

Hopefully waiting to test the GUI and give you a hand ;)

For God's sake, read the wiki people...

this is for you nisheet :)

Use the xterm command as the content of the Exec field in the .desktop

@sifo: this should be in wiki: if you use specific command, it can be put into the .desktop.

@everyone:
This'll be fixed when the GUI comes out (and the command-line tools). But if no one donates, this may take a quite long time until I finally write GUI :) not enough motivation :D

Re: [Announce/WIP][Alpha] MeeCoLay - run Harmattan apps on Fremantle!
 

first Congratulations for solved it but what changes should i do in quasarmx.desktop is

not like this
Exec=LD_PRELOAD=/opt/meecolay/lib/libdsme_dbus_if.so.0.2.0 meecolay /opt/quasarmx/bin/quasarmx


but like this

made sh file (quasarmx.sh) and but in it

LD_PRELOAD=/opt/meecolay/lib/libdsme_dbus_if.so.0.2.0 meecolay /opt/quasarmx/bin/quasarmx


and in quasarmx.desktop only do this

Exec=sh /opt/quasarmx/bin/quasarmx.sh


and put icon in

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/
