To install the SDK on Debian Squeeze I had a couple issues:

1. the "meego-sdk" package was uninstallable because of a dependency issue
2. the SDK installs into /opt and the recommended partitioning has / too small (about 200MB are required)

The first issue was solved by forward-porting libmpfr1ldbl from Debian Lenny, if you adapt for your setup and actual versions:

# echo deb-src http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian/ lenny main >> /etc/apt/sources.list
# apt-get update
[...]
# apt-get source -b libmpfr1ldbl
# dpkg -i libmpfr1ldbl_2.3.1.dfsg.1-2_amd64.deb
# apt-get install meego-sdk

The second issue was easily solved with a bind mount:

# echo /usr/opt /opt bind defaults,bind 0 0 >> /etc/fstab
# mkdir -p /opt /usr/opt
# mount /opt

This has to be done before the previous step if you needed it. Do not forget to move the contents of /opt to /usr/opt if necessary.
