=== Porting Debian Packages ===
+
-
If you are interested in porting applications from Debian then you may want to add:
+
-
deb-src http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib
+
-
to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-source.list
+
-
This allows '''apt-get source <package>''' to pull in source that should be reasonably compatible with Diablo.
+
-
See [[Packaging#Porting_an_existing_Debian_package|Porting Debian packages]] for more details.

When that happens, you can't dist-upgrade either. So do this BEFORE editing "/etc/apt/sources.list" (or reedit it for "Chinook"):
+
= Diablo =
-
  $ apt-get install passwd
+
  deb http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/sdk free non-free
-
$ dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-31sarge5.osso7_i386.deb
+
  deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/sdk free
-
  $ apt-get install --reinstall debianutils
+
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/tools free non-free
-
$ dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/debianutils<tab
+
  deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ diablo/tools free
-
 
+
  deb file:/home/faheem/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.1 diablo explicit
-
Or if that doesn't work either, you can, AS A LAST RESORT, try editing "/etc/apt/sources.list" for "Diablo" (see above), and then:
+
-
 
+
-
$ apt-get install passwd
+
-
 
+
-
This will update "passwd" to Diablo's "passwd". If you expect anything to work after that, did I tell you already that this advice comes with no warranty? ;)
+
-
 
+
-
No really, in the worst case your Scratchbox will be broken after that and you'll have to reinstall Scratchbox.
+
-
 
+
-
If it actually did work, don't forget to dist-update as soon as possible afterwards so that the remainder of the system is updated too (and hopefully doesn't choke on the already-updated "passwd"):
+
-
 
+
-
  $ apt-get dist-upgrade
+
-
 
+
-
In any case, should the following happen after you updated the distribution one way or another:
+
-
 
+
-
Preparing to replace passwd 1:4.0.3-31sarge5.osso7 (using .../passwd_1%3a4.0.3-31sarge5.osso8_i386.deb) ...
+
-
  Unpacking replacement passwd ...
+
-
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-31sarge5.osso8_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/sbin/remove-shell', which is also in package debianutils
+
-
 
+
-
Then do this:
+
-
 
+
-
$ fakeroot dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-31sarge5.osso8_i386.deb
+
-
 
+
-
So it finally shuts up and you have involuntarily updated to Diablo. ;-)
