Hi, you have to install python2.5-dev package in scratchbox (apt-get install python2.5-dev). To install your package you can use "python2.5-dev setup.py install" command. This message "sem_post: Function not implemented" is a qemu problem (http://setanta.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/qemu-arm-eabi-no-scratchbox/), but compilation should work. If this package (egenix-mx-base) was only in python (without bindings in C), you can install it directly in the device, because there isn't gcc and development libraries in n810 device. []'s Jos?
