I've got Debian setup in VMWare, have installed scratchbox etc. but now have a question and a problem:
1) On step 11 (Install the helper scripts) the dependencies-helper creates a dependencies-helper sub-directory for the archive contents so that on step 3 of "Compiling a sample program" the line ../dl-and-install -u xmhexagons can't find the dl-and-install script.
So, are the dependencies-helper files meant to be in a sub-directory, or should that Step 3 line be updated to point to the dependencies-helper sub-directory?
2) When I use the dl-and-install script I get the following:
Code:
Locating the package name...
Looking up packages.debian.org
Unable to locate remote host packages.debian.org
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.
lynx: Can't access startfile http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?version=testing&arch=arm&case=insensitive&word=xmhexagons&searchmode=searchword
Problem locating the package, exiting...
It seems to have a problem with accessing the network. wget works fine from within scratchbox. And I can ping packages.debian.org from outside of scratchbox in a regular terminal.
Any ideas?
