[egenix-users] Re: python-egenix-mxdatetime on Openmoko

[Joseph Reeves]

I've just apt-get installed date time onto my Ubuntu machine and
recreated the produced file structure onto the Openmoko. Now when I
try and install gnue-forms I'm told:

root at om-gta02:~/gnue-forms-0.6.1# python setup.py install
running install
checking GNUe Common Library
checking mxDateTime library
*** You don't have the (right) mxDateTime binaries installed !
---
Could not import the mx.DateTime package.
Please install mxDateTime from the mxtools suite.
The file 'INSTALL' contains more information about dependencies.
root at om-gta02:~/gnue-forms-0.6.1#

Obviously the binaries I've apt-get'd onto my laptop are for i686
machines, not the arm4 architecture of the Openmoko.

Again, any help would be massively appreciated.

Thanks, Joseph
