The project's primary mission is that we make Hildon Desktop installable on MeeGo with all the goodies it has on Maemo.
Talk: (50pages about running hildon-desktop on meego) http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=56822

There are plenty of git-repositories and I managed to build hildon-desktop top of GTK3 (it had some gtk2 functions left but I dropped them).

I got it running, but it is not looking anything yet.

I'm planning to push source level instructions and deb-packages, but I will double check them first and maybe I want some real milestone achieved also.

Short summary of building-order and origin of sources:
M=maemo5 (apt-get source)
C=cordia (git)
J=jessie (apt-get source)
S=squeezie (dget)

cairo [J] (need tuning for dependencies, or it uninstall mesa-GL)

hildon-libs-l10n-public [M]
osso-system-lock-l10n-public [M]
hildon-fm-l10n-public [M]
hildon-icons [S]
hildon-theme-plankton [S] (deb is not installable, but copy directory to right place)

clutter [C] (against GL, not GLES)

libhildon-1 [C] (gtk3)

(do not use libosso-gnomevfs2-dev but libgnomevfs2-dev)

libdsme [M]
libiphb [MEEGO] (was liberated for harmattan)
libhildondesktop [C]

libmatchbox2 [C] (against clutter-0.8, not 1.0)

libhildonmime-dev [M]

libhildondesktop1 [C]

hildondesktop [C] (without maemo-launcher)

*
(It seems to me that) hildon-desktop acts as a window manager and Matchbox2 is statically compiled inside hildon-desktop.
-there are no matchbox -process running on maemo
-hildon-desktop should be very next to start after X


Starting:
On device, as root, start X (command is 'X', not startx)
And then over ssh, as user, run hildon-desktop

I'm not sure what is next package, maybe hildon-home?

Here is some selection of log when hildon-desktop is started:
Code:
** (hildon-desktop:2378): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files

qildon:
https://gitorious.org/qildon
Qildon is a set of Qt Widgets to work together with Hildon Desktop without dependencies on Hildon or Gtk+
I tried to compile it (gtk2-dev not-installed) but compile aborted because of missing gtk2. a) I failed to configure it correctly OR b) it is depending on GTK.

I'm waiting more info about this until I continue. (Is somebody ever got this compiled and running on any system? How ready it is?)
---------------
bme:
Closed source on fremantle, liberated for harmattan. Sources:
bme-rx-51 https://gitorious.org/rx51-bme-replacement/bme-rx-51
hald-addon-bme https://gitorious.org/rx51-bme-repla...hald-addon-bme
libbmeipc0 https://gitorious.org/rx51-bme-replacement/libbmeipc

And some more: https://gitorious.org/rx51-bme-replacement

These depends on libhal, which is not anymore on jessie. Maybe version from squeeze is better than wheezy or fremantle.Got it build, but not yet tested installation.
---------------
mce:
From harmattan.

I quickly check that is has some tough dependency (I don't yet know where to get)
osso-systemui-modechange-dev
libdevlock-dev
osso-systemui-devlock-dev
osso-systemui-splashscreen-dev
libcal-dev (binary version from this can be installed from NOKIA-binaries)

It also needs hald-addon-bme-dev (from meego), not yet tested.
