Have you specified -r so that it will download recursively?
Works for me if i want a copy of a website along with the files.

EDIT: It has started. Will see about the results. If i get some packages, i'd say it works.
But so far, no .deb files.
Might have something to do about recursion depth.
Ok... not recursion depth.

I cant figure this out, either. (Attempting from Ubuntu Maverick with wget 1.12)

Did wget with -r as well yesterday.. Again, only blank folders created: unable to get to the files... Running Debian Testing

Have you told it to ignore robots?

Well, you should be able to get wget to work, but even better is rsync along the lines of:

There are a few repos there, some optified, some not. Nokia never fixed broken optification, so many optified apps are still fkted, this many months later...

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7707

The repos are between 7 and 10 gigs each.

Maybe this would be of some use:

Just out of curiosity,

Is there a similar build attempt of relatively new Debian squeeze packages for Maemo5?

I have 2 questions:

1. Is there any advantage to using a repo like this over installing easy debian and installing packages there?

2. If so , the repo seems down, did anyone manage to re-host it?

radiochickenwax | # 68 | 2011-02-28, 05:26 | Report

The advantage is that the packages on such a repo do not have to run in an alternate (chroot = changed root) filesystem such as easy-debian, they can be run natively from the n900.

I second this query. Could really use those packages right now.

seems to be unusable...
