Did you try opkg dist-upgrade ? I'm not even sure it exists in opkg, but on debian/ubuntu-systems, upgrade doesn't install new packages, if needed. So it could "hang" somewhere between two versions. dist-upgrade, on the other hand, will happily install new needed packages.

For this purpose we have meta packages (packages beginning with task-*).

[2008.x] Settings app not working
Installing a clean testing-image and the settings app worked.
But then again, the clean testing image contains nothing else than the
settings and installer apps. So I had some problems figuring out how to make
a phone out of it. I searched for hours on google, openmoko wiki, openmoko
mailinglists and even on irc without any results. So what I ended up doing
in the end was the following:
I rebooted to the old image which was running without a working settings
app, but at least a working phone, as I didn't overwrite that partition when
trying out the testing image. On the console there I ran something like:
$ opkg list_installed | awk '{ print $1 }' | sort > old_packages
then rebooted back to the testing image and did the following:
$ opkg list_installed | awk '{ print $1 }' | sort > new_packages
and then the quick and dirty:
$ diff old_packages new_packages | grep "^<" | awk '{ print $2 }' | while
read package; do opkg install $package; done
which basically means that for *every* package that was installed
previously, but is no longer installed, install it whatever it is there for.
So... What would have been the preverred way of figuring which packages I
would need to install? Is there a list somewhere on the net/wiki/anywhere
else? Are there some meta-packages I could have installed instead, like
'opkg install phone-software' ?
But at least I now seem to have both a working phone AND a working settings
application... at the SAME time... WOW!! That would actually make it the
first time since I got the phone in mid august. Now, however, I no longer
have a keyboard in the openmoko-terminal2. *phew* I do get the keyboard when
typing messages though.
But my conclusion seems to be that the settings app is working (although not
scrolling) using a clean testing image. However, installing a stable image,
then upgrading to testing by changing the opkg repository links, the
settings application breaks. Even when doing it from a clean stable image.
So I guess there is a bug that has to be addressed there to avoid the
package conflict or whatever it is causing the breakage.

[2008.x] Settings app not working
November 1st I upgraded from 2008.9 stable to 2008.x testing, using opkg update && opkg upgrade. This broke the settings applications which no longer starts. I have just now updated and upgraded again to see if there would be a fix in the repository without any luck. I have also searched google and the mailing lists without finding anything relevant. This is the bug #2088 ( http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/2088 ), in which I have also pasted the backtrace. Apparently the bug has been resolved, but I can not find out how to apply this fix. The backtrace is: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# exposure.py -f run Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/exposure.py", line 304, in import etk File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/etk/__init__.py", line 1, in from core import * File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/etk/core.py", line 1, in import c_etk ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/etk/c_etk.so: undefined symbol: evas_list_append Does anybody know how to fix this? Am I the only one getting this error? It seems I have some incompatible packages. How can I find out which ones? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
