Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

Btw this seems a known problem:

So maybe recompile libglib too.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

Something about kernel-power headers is wrong. As I recognized that kernel-power v53 is also in extras. But the headers are not. I guess we should fix that. Same is for kernel-power-source v53 is only in devel.

I would say we should fix our repos and also vote fcam-drivers to extras.

Hmm... I missed that so thanks a lot for that info...

Oh... my... god... this seems to be a real project for me now... :D Anyway, I will try to make it work...

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

Yeah, that would be great; luckily I have enabled extras-devel on my sdk image so installed all...

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

But be careful with extras-devel, only install packages which are known to work and which you really need. To make an upgrade on extras-devel could upgrade packages which are broken. When your host (N900) is on cssu-testing then you should do an upgrade on your build environment with cssu-testing.

Not in all cases this is needed or will harm the environment, it depends on the packages you really need for building or which you have installed. But this is my recommandation to be on the save side. And you need to compile and install libc first then recompile and install libglib, rcompile and install fcam-drivers, after this your are safe to go for recompiling fcam-applications.

Thanks for your words I'll try to stay on the safe side. This is going to be a very long night. Or weekend... :D

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

Oh yes I know these long weekends and sometimes you do not make a step forward. I wish you luck that no patching is needed or more recompiling like maybe libjpeg62 or libqt4.:)

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

I am also using FCamera and BlessN900 with KP53. BlessN900 crashes sometimes, but mostly both of them work. I think I might have had some problems with installing FCamera. Maybe it was about the driver, but can't remember precisely. Anyway I got it working somehow just by reinstalling, without needing to recompile anything.

edit: but obviously I don't have libc6 or other oddities, so that might be the cause.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

OK, now I'm a bit stuck...
Tried to compile fcamera but qmake could not be executed. I thought that it could be that all build-deps are cssu so installing cssu could be the next step but it could not be installed because to install cssu enabler I have to verify something that needs the screen which is not available from chroot...

So I tried to compile libglib but dpkg-buildpackage stops and says there is no debian/changelog (which is true... at least with the source I downloaded).

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing
 

You need probably the libqt4-dev package.


Hmm I don't know about chroot environment:( But in scratchbox a "fakeroot apt-get upgrade" would be the step. Otherwise try without cssu first.


I see that makes it not so easy I guess it needs the configure command before running make?
Try without glib first.
