Development quick start

Thanks to Debian you can get ready in minutes. Have build-essential, autotools-dev and debhelper packages installed. Let's take the famous [hello package]. If there are any build dependecies you can find them in: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/h/hello/hello_2.2-2.dsc

Now go to your build directory and do:

# apt-get source -b hello

This fetches the sources and the -b switch tells apt to build it. After a few moments you will find the ready build .deb! To speed up compilation of larger packages use distcc. Distcc will only do the preprocessing on the Neo and then dispatch it to your desktop for fast compilation. See here: http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/openmoko/qemu-distcc.txt
