Downloading and Installing the Maemo SDK

Downloading the SDK

All the stable releases of maemo are available for downloading from the maemo repository.

Maemo 3.0 SDK Installation

Maemo 3.0 provides an updated installer script that can be used to install the SDK. This is the preferred way to install maemo 3.0. The installer script is provided in the maemo 3.0 repository together with the rootstraps.

Note
If you plan to install maemo 3.0 with the maemo-sdk-install_3.0.sh then you ONLY need to download the installer script and run it outside the Scratchbox Apophis R4. The installer will fetch the necessary files from maemo.org and setup the Scratchbox targets for you. After starting the installer just follow the instructions on the screen.

It is also possible to install maemo 3.0 manually. For manual installation please see the INSTALL.txt file in the repository for details.

Warning
The current version, maemo 3.0 only supports Scratchbox Apophis R4 (1.x).
Using the software with older Scratchbox 0.9.8 version may cause troubles, hence we do not recommend nor support it in maemo 3.0!

Maemo 3.0 Package Repository

The maemo 3.0 installer script will automatically setup and configure the /etc/apt/sources.list files inside your Scratchbox targets. After installation you should be able to use the apt-get tools inside the scratchbox to access the components in the maemo 3.0 bora repositories.

The /etc/apt/sources.list file for maemo 3.0 are: 

		deb http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free non-free
		deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free
Note
If you installed the Nokia Binaries package during the installation you will also have a third repository in the /etc/apt/sources.list file that points to your local computer.

Here is an example how to entry would look like. Note that the word 'somebody' refers to your local user name. 

        deb file://home/somebody/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_3.0 bora explicit
Warning
Maemo's Debian repository is meant to be used inside the Scratchbox environment.
Do not configure your host workstation to use the same sources.list file.
