Necessitas

So, I’ve fought with Necessitas for a while now. I reported a bug on a flawed install, but then I hacked around it. Basically, what I did was the following:

  1. Create a directory: /data/data/eu.licentia.necessitas.ministro/files
  2. From that directory, create a symbolic link, qt, pointing at /opt/necessitas/Android/4.7.60

Then it works. I’ve built and deployed wiggly onto a poor old HTC Hero and it all seems to play nicely this far – just have to wait for Ministro to download Qt. Next step is an application built around plugins that I’d like to deploy. Looks like I might have to read up some more. Until then – thanks for the great work, BogDan!

Spring Cleaning

I did some cleaning, sorting and updating of various computers at home this weekend. In the process, I found a cup heater from Trolltech – great stuff.

Side note – in the picture, Tux the Linux mascot, Trolltech cup heater, Microsoft Natural keyboard, Apple hardware and HTC Android phone. Talk about Qt everywhere :-)
