== Installation ==

These tools can be installed in the device by activating the Fremantle tools repository in the Application manager. The tools are command line utilities, so they will not add applications to the application manager list of downloadable applications. This also means that the tools need to be installed from the X terminal [[Root access|as root]]. Developers can also install them in Scratchbox using the command line interface.

To activate the tools repository with the Application Manager, 
<s>http://mg.pov.lt/770/tools-repository.install ('''does not work in PR 1.2 - please fix''')</s> [http://maemo.cloud-7.de/repositories.install open this single-click_2_install-3 file], or manually create a new catalogue like this:

# Navigate to the application menu in the Application Manager (tap the title bar)
# Select ‘Application catalogs’
# Select ‘New’
# Enter a catalog name of ‘fremantle tools’
# Enter a web address of http://repository.maemo.org
# Enter a distribution of ‘fremantle/tools’
# Enter components of ‘free non-free’
# Make sure that ‘Disabled:’ is left unchecked
# Select ‘Save’

If you prefer to edit configuration files yourself instead of using the Application manager, add these lines to your <code>/etc/apt/sources.list</code>

<pre>
# fremantle tools
deb http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools free non-free
# fremantle tools sources
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools free non-free
</pre>

To install a binary package in Scratchbox:

<pre>
$ fakeroot apt-get install &lt;bin pkg name&gt;
</pre>

To install a binary package to the device ([[Root access|as root]]):

<pre>
$ apt-get install &lt;bin pkg name&gt;   
</pre>

To install a source package in Scratchbox or to the device:
<pre>
$ apt-get source &lt;src pkg name&gt;                        
</pre>
