Latest revision as of 11:00, 14 April 2011

This page describe how to use the initial MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview and test it. It's not for real MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview version and the contents here are mainly for QA testing before the release. But it will become official when it is released.

Introduction

MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview will include following major changes:

• Qt Creator update to 2.1-rc.
• Qt Simulator and handset skin
• MeeGo 1.2 toolchain
• MeeGo 1.2 new targets support. Covers 1.1.80 and up.

Prerequisites

You can either do a new installation or update an existing installation to get MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview.

• New Installation

You can have a New Installation of MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview by removing all old components. To remove the previous SDK, please refer to SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting started with the MeeGo SDK for Linux#Removing components.

• Update from previous installation

Install the MeeGo SDK 1.1 with SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting started with the MeeGo SDK for Linux

• Note

The Update should just work but in case you have any problem, a new installation can be tried.

Update installation repository of MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview

• There are 3 repositories for you to update to MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview
• MeeGo SDK development repo - devel:tools:sdk:host - Changed frequently and mainly used by MeeGo SDK team.
• MeeGo SDK testing repo - Tools:SDK:Host - Be stabler than devel:tools:sdk:host.
• MeeGo SDK release repo - "http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/sdk/host/repos/". For release. Not ready for 1.2-preview now.
• Note:
  • The toolchain repo "http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2" is only used when devel:tools:sdk:host is used.
  • The Qt Simulator is only available in devel:tools:sdk:host repository at this stage. So don't try to install qt-simulator meego-sdk-qt-simulator-skin if you are not using the devel:tools:sdk:host repo.

On Ubuntu or Debian

1. Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/meego-sdk.list.
   Replace ${distribution} with one of the following: "Debian_5.0", "Ubuntu_09.10", "Ubuntu_10.04" or "Ubuntu_10.10".
   For getting the Development version set:

   deb http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host/${distribution}/ / 
   deb http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2/${distribution}/ / 

Alternativelly for the Testing version use:

deb http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/SDK:/Host/${distribution}/ / 


Note: If you use the Testing repository qt-simulator will not install

2. Add the repository public key:

   $ gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv 0BC7BEC479FC1F8A
   $ gpg --export --armor 0BC7BEC479FC1F8A | sudo apt-key add -

3. Update the packages database:

   $ sudo apt-get update

4. To check that the MeeGo repository has been correctly added, run the following command. The details of the meego-sdk-qtcreator package should be printed.

   $ apt-cache policy meego-sdk-qtcreator

   Make sure you installed the 2.1.0~rc1 or newer version.

On Fedora

1. Go to the yum repository directory:

   $ cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ 

2. Add the MeeGo SDK 1.2-preview yum repository.
   Replace ${distribution} with one of the following: "Fedora_12" or "Fedora_13".

   $ sudo wget http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host.repo
   $ sudo wget http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host:toolchain:MeeGo:1.2.repo

Or with Tools:SDK:Host repo

$ sudo wget http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/SDK:/Host/${distribution}/Tools:SDK:Host.repo

3. Install the signing key:

   $ sudo rpm --import http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host/${distribution}/repodata/repomd.xml.key
   $ sudo rpm --import http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2/${distribution}/repodata/repomd.xml.key 

Or with Tools:SDK:Host repo

$ sudo rpm --import http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/SDK:/Host/${distribution}/repodata/repomd.xml.key

4. Update the packages database:

   $ sudo yum update

On MeeGo

• To add the MeeGo SDK repository on a system running MeeGo, run the following command.
  Replace ${distribution}/${version} with one of the following values: "Trunk".

  $ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host.repo
  $ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host.repo

Or with Tools:SDK:Host repo

$ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/SDK:/Host/${distribution}/Tools:SDK:Host.repo

On openSUSE

• To add the MeeGo repository, run the following command.
  Replace ${distribution}/${version} with one of the following values: "openSUSE_11.2" or "openSUSE_11.3".

  $ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host.repo
  $ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/devel:/tools:/sdk:/host:/toolchain:/MeeGo:/1.2/${distribution}/devel:tools:sdk:host:toolchain:MeeGo:1.2.repo

  Or with Tools:SDK:Host repo

  $ sudo zypper addrepo -f http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/SDK:/Host/${distribution}/Tools:SDK:Host.repo

On Fedora 13, the attica has been provided by the system so the libattica0 might not be needed.

• OpenSUSE / MeeGo

  $ sudo zypper install qt-simulator meego-sdk-qt-simulator-skin libattica0

For IA32:

• Debian / Ubuntu

  $ sudo apt-get install meego-sdk-ia32 meego-1.2-sdk-ia32-toolchain

Add MeeGo SDK 1.1.80 and later targets

We use meego-sdk-update-target tool to add new target. For detailed usage of meego-sdk-update-target, please refer to SDK/Tutorials/Add_a_new_target.

• Update handset target. Replace the {url_sysroot} and {url_runtime} with the url to the real tarballs and provide a target name as you want.

sudo ./meego-sdk-update-target -u 1.2-preview-test01 -d handset -a ia32 -meego-version 1.2 -sysroot ${url_sysroot} -runtime ${url_runtime}

• Update netbook target. Replace the {url_sysroot} and {url_runtime} with the url to the real tarballs and provide a target name as you want.

sudo ./meego-sdk-update-target -u 1.2-preview-test01 -d netbook -a ia32 -meego-version 1.2 -sysroot ${url_sysroot} -runtime ${url_runtime}

Add Qt Simulator target

• Launch qt-simulator. The qt-simulator has to be registered manually before it's usable. Will be fixed.

/opt/meego/qt-simulator/simulator -registeronly

• Launch meego-sdk-qtcreator
• Go to Tools->Options->Qt4->Qt Versions
• Click the "+" to add a new "Qt Version"
• In "Version name", provide a name.
• In "qmake locations:", browser and select /opt/meego/simulator-qt/bin/qmake
• Build
• To use the simulator, please refer to http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtsimulator-1.1/simulator-starting.html for more information.
