Compiling for Maemo Diablo 4.1.2?

[VulcanRidr]

Hi all,

I originally posted this on talk.maemo.org and haven't gotten any help. A friend suggested I post here.

In case you are not familiar, Maemo is the operating system for the Nokia Internet tablets (770, N800, N810 and N900). It is based on Debian, and the last version of the OS is called Diablo (Maemo 4).

That said, the version of Angband available was compiled for Chinook, wifh is Maemo version 3. Things have changed and one of the packages needed for the Chinook version of Angband is no longer available on Diablo. So, it doesn't quite install cleanly on Diablo. It installs, and is playable, but messes up the applicaiton manager

I am a Linux sysadmin, but unfortunately, my areas of specialty are security and cluster. I am not a developer...So mt C-foo is weak. I would really appreciate any advice anyone could provide.

I set up the SDK based on this page on an Ubuntu Jaunty x86 VM, and downloaded the deb-src files (.orig.tar.gz, .diff.gz and .dsc) Debian arm versions from unstable (3.1.1) and from stable (3.0.9). I untarred each directory in turn, and applied the diff file to Debianize the source. I then issued a sb2 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -d -b. Each compile failed. For 3.0.9, it gave me:

Could someone help me decipher the problems with this? I would be glad to provide the entire build, but didn't want to make enemies by spamming the list on my first post.

Thanks in advance,

Greetings,

I am not an expert in compiling on foreign platforms, but since noone else replied yet..

Please investigate that you have a complete and correct installation of the ncurses library. Alternatively, if you dont use curses on Diablo, please do not compile with the CURSES compile time option.

With regards to
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-missing-field-initializers"
please find this option in the makefile and simply remove it, see what that gives.
