freemangordonds_shadof: pester ceene, he is on the channel10:04

*** antranigv has joined #maemo10:50
*** princefakhan has joined #maemo10:50
ds_shadofi'm using latest 2.0.10 521010:51
antranigvhay all, anyone good at porting console programs? (:10:52
KotCzarnyantranigv: console apps should work out-of-the-compile-box10:53
*** Guest15213 has quit IRC10:53
antranigvKotCzarny: then I just have to compile it for the n900?10:53
antranigvcross-compile?10:53
KotCzarnyuse scratchbox10:54
* antranigv needs a good RSS reader10:54
antranigvI'm in love with this one http://newsbeuter.org/10:54
KotCzarnythen just copy binary (console apps are usually single binary)10:54
antranigvcool, I'll let you know (:10:54
bencohif it's in debian it should be *really* easy to port10:56
KotCzarnyyou can also check if debian-armel has already compiled it10:56
bencohapart from the deps hell10:56
bencohKotCzarny: debian-armel is hf ... isnt it ?10:56
KotCzarnydont know, im regularly snatching stuff from there10:56
KotCzarnyand it works10:56
bencohoh, okay10:56
KotCzarnythere is debian-arm and debian-armel10:57
KotCzarnysometimes i even snatch patches from there for armel related fixups10:57
antranigvfound it! https://packages.debian.org/jessie/newsbeuter10:57
KotCzarnyantranigv: watchh out, unpack the package, dont install it directly10:58
KotCzarnyand you may need OLD one (sid or lenny) because libc is old10:58
KotCzarnyso check backports if it doesnt work10:58
antranigvoops. it's only jessie :-/10:58
KotCzarnygrab the source package and try to compile it in scratchbox10:59
antranigvthere is sid. ahh I'll compile it10:59
KotCzarnyyou can also try running the binary, there is a slim chance it would work10:59
bencohantranigv: you do have scratchbox ?10:59
antranigvjust need to make sure it needs the deps for compiling, not for running.11:00
antranigvbencoh: nop, I'll just install (:11:00
bencohmeh :)11:00
KotCzarnywasnt there a pre-prepared scratchbox image?11:00
bencohsure there is11:01
bencoh~sb11:01
infobotfrom memory, scratchbox is a cross-compiling system that uses binfmt_misc, rpc calls, and an nfs mount to make a cross-build appear to be 100% native, and is found at http://www.scratchbox.org/, hosted by maemo now. Also at http://maemo.merlin1991.at/files/SB11:01
antranigvthank you infobot11:01
princefakhangive him something to eat instead.11:02
antranigvit would be nice to have gentoo on n900. idk.11:05
princefakhanbtw, I have a similar problem with yappari.11:05
antranigvah, now I need to download this 1.3Gb file? (:11:07
Siceloantranigv: Luke-Jr is your man :P11:07
Sicelore: gentoo on N90011:07
* antranigv loves #maemo community11:07
princefakhanantranigv: what are you upto?11:08
antranigvprincefakhan: just wanna port... a compiler (: and an RSS reader. and alpine (email client)11:09
KotCzarnyantranigv: porting compiler is.. hard11:09
antranigvthe compiler that I need has been ported once, before, the old version.11:10
KotCzarnyi wonder, will current deb-chroot's gcc run without problems?11:10
antranigvKotCzarny: nice idea, I can use the programs that I need in the chroot env.11:10
bencohantranigv: which compiler ?11:10
antranigvbencoh: it's Oberon-2 compiler, named voc.11:11
KotCzarnygcc 4.[789]11:11
antranigva maemo user created it btw.11:11
princefakhanantranigv: looks like a lot.11:11
bencohhm, what's that ...11:11
antranigvum, a programming language, it's pascal-ish11:12
princefakhanI hope you don't get stuck in dependency hell.11:12
bencoh.... mmmkay11:12
antranigvlike, the grandson of pascal11:12
bencoh:)11:12
antranigvwell, now I have 3 Nokia N900s, :D11:12
bencohergh, garbage collection11:12
bencohall three in good shape ?11:12
antranigvone's USB port is dead11:12
antranigvI'll fix it when (IF!) I go back to Armenia11:13
antranigvor buy a new one.11:13
antranigvnew-used*11:13
princefakhanI wanted to compile a program. I had everything. but the dependencies were not available on our beloved n900.11:13
princefakhanand that was when I lost hope. that was something I was ogonna do for the first time. lol.11:14
*** Guest15213 has joined #maemo11:14

KotCzarnythere is a page on maemo.org11:15
*** beford has quit IRC11:15
bencohantranigv: err .... you'll need libstfl as well11:15
bencoh(for newsbeuter)11:15
antranigvbencoh: is that... hell?11:15
bencohdunno11:15
bencohbut it's not in maemo11:15
bencohneither in extras11:15
bencohso someone has to build it11:16
KotCzarnyantranigv: you will see, you can also compile it in sb11:16
KotCzarnybut luckily most apps in linux are just unpack/configure/make/make install11:16
antranigvlet's hope it'll be (: ah, I need to find a way to understand11:16
KotCzarnyassuming you are building only for yourself11:16
bencohthere are wiki pages about sb, and the sb vm, and what to do with those11:16
KotCzarnybut then you will have to copy that lib too, also single file usually11:17
bencoh~google site:wiki.maemo.org scratchbox11:17
bencoh~search site:wiki.maemo.org scratchbox11:17
bencohinfobot: geee!11:17
