Got kerala2009 largely working on readynas. Main problem was tooltips causing layout problems in bordercontainer. Moved them to bottom to fix. Problems still with dialogs and flickr store.

Node.js on DUO progress

Returning to this as I got a response to my msg of the forum. Got a bit further.

Unable to get kerala working on dojo 1.6. Debuging with CDN not easy. So
installed dojo 1.6 src on readynas and wrote rsync script to install kerala on it.

Installing Nodejs on Readynas duo

working from https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation

Failed for lack of a C complier. So tried this which failed at

apt-get install libc6-dev

Tried this

Then try apt-get upgrade again, apt-get -f install back and forth until only the package that has the error is left.

A lot of scary messages later.. no progress

Setting up apache-common (1.3.33-6sarge3) ...
addgroup: The group `www-data' already exists.
dpkg: error processing apache-common (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 apache-common
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Realise this is all a bit dangerous
Please remember, do not replace the libc6 package! I haven't try that, but I guess it will brick the system if tried.

apt-get install libssl-dev

Looking for advice on the readynas forums
