MeeCoLay
What is MeeCoLay?
MeeCoLay stands for MeeGo Compatibility Layer. It allows to run Harmattan apps on Fremantle.
Configuration
This requires a bit more preparation than preenv. Why?
MeeGo libraries are sometimes very hard to be built under Fremantle autobuilder. I was playing around a bit with applauncherd. It has insane dependencies, a lot of nokia-binaries, some packages that are too old in fremantle.
It came out that using a precompiled libstdc++6 4.6.1 that can be found in a TMO thread and precompiled MeeGo binaries you can run many MeeGo apps (e.g. allegro, SzybkiDemot, ebay bargains - the first two are Polish apps)
As compiling all the stuff requires lots of (often unneeded packages), I decided I'll upload the libs onto my server and they'll be in the end downloaded automatically.
First preparations
First of all you need to have an updated packages list and extras-devel repository enabled, as meecolay always having new updates, new dependencies, new libraries packs.
Update your package list using application manager via "update" button or using terminal
apt-get update
Now you are ready to install meecolay !
apt-get install meecolay
Will install almost everything needed. Meecolay ships with its own included repo if you haven't manually installed newer version of glib2.0-0 or sqlite3, you may want to download them with
apt-get install libglib2.0-0 sqlite3 libsqlite3-0
Those packages should be automatically installed when you try to correct dependencies
apt-get install -f
Note: that if the package gets uninstalled after this command, you need to modify its DEBIAN/control. Uninstall it, otherwise you wont be able to install anything else !. Modify the depends install again should be eased up in the future.
/opt/meecolay's owner should be user.
Now you are ready to try MeeGo games and apps using this command
meecolay /path/to/executable
