Title: Smalltalk
Post by: nykodemus on June 08, 2006, 01:37:53 am
Hi there, I'm new to the Zaurus, and linux in general. I have tried for the past week or more to get OE to build GNU Smalltalk for me, but I apparently don't know what I'm doing. I get lost pretty quickly, but somehow stumble around without crashing until the instructions assume I have .bb files, which I don't know how to make or aquire. I really don't understand why this is so much more difficult than just executing './configure' and 'make'.

So anyway I give up and I now beg for an .ipk of both GNU Smalltalk http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/smalltalk.html (http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/smalltalk.html) and Squeak Smalltalk http://squeak.org/ (http://squeak.org/) for Open Zaurus/GPE.

Thank you in advance for whomever can make this happen.
