Hi Mirko,
I propose to you to subscribe to dev-l <at> openzim.org - see http://openzim.org/Mailinglist. This is a quite low-volume mailing list.

I think we should do something like the following:
- get the ZimReader into the OWrt image for the Freerunner to get the
basics working
have you seen that there is a package of the zimlib and zimreader for openmoko? https://intern.openzim.org/pipermail/dev-l/2009-July/000122.html http://www.gut-informierte-kreise.de/openmoko/openzim/
Maybe this gives you at least some fixes to be able to build your binary for the Freerunner. As far as Marc wrote yesterday on dev-l his patches were integrated into openZIM trunk, so compiling should work now on openmoko.
What is missing are packages - and I think that's exactly your point ;-) I hope that way the diverse efforts on openmoko can work hand-in-hand.
A few question to help me understand the process:
What software requirements does the ZimReader have? (languages, libs, tools etc)
As far as I know the zimlib has only libbz2 as dependancy, cxxtools should have been removed already.
The zimreader needs cxxtools and tntnet, tntnet tries to include gnutls or openssl and database backends (via tntdb), but those things can be disabled using configure.
Where are you based? ( for potential meeting in person )
* Zürich (CH, Kiwix) * Frankfurt/Main (D, tntnet) * San Francisco (US, Wikimedia Foundation) * Israel (Wikimedia Israel) * Lörrach (D, near Basel, Troll)
The next developers meeting will take place this autumn, most likely on November 5th - see our poll: http://www.doodle.com/xaf4tzpuwk2xf59h
I would be happy if you like to subscribe: http://openzim.org/Developer_Meetings/2009-2
