Just to counter more rumours concerning why you might want to put your package into the "user/foo" section: A package has to have "user/foo" in its Section field in order to be visible in the Application Manager. If a package is not visible in the Application Manager, it will still install it automatically to satisfy dependencies. It will also remove such a package automatically when it is no longer needed by any visible package. Also, a package has to have "user/foo" in its Section field in order to be installable with the "Install from file" method. This has been done to avoid the surprise that would result from installing a package that will subsequently not be listed by the Application Manager. These rules only apply in blue-pill mode. They can be deactivated in red-pill mode. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
