Hi Leonard. Unfortunately this project is still in a developement phase and will not help you in any way right now. But you're right, at some point in the future it should provide python easily. Anyway, there already is some thread about python for KT (or Kindles in general?). Dunno if it's in any usable state.
And a notice to everyone: I'm back!
I'll try to move this to some usable state soon. Unless things have changed and this is no longer interesting/wanted.
Unfortunately the new 5.1 update which seems to break everything including a lot of previously working hacks means a huge trouble. It brings to the first place an issue I hoped we wouldn't have to deal with so soon. We need a good and solid way of having different package versions for different versions of the firmware (and kindle for that matter). One way is having different package repository for different version, but this (IMHO) will lead to lot of troubles with people using wrong repository for their kindle. My original idea was to use the 'Architecture' field of a package to differentiate the firmware/kindles. Unfortunately I still don't know if it is possible to hack OpenEmbeded to do that in a clean way (and the OE devs weren't much helpfull here yet). I'll keep looking into that.
If anyone has any other bright idea feel free to share.
