Re: How to install an applicaiton on emulaor?
Try the app manager in the sdk . you can also aptitude/apt-get to install packages . But you should first add deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ fremantle free deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ fremantle free non-free deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free non-free deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free Maemo is much like any other debian based system .

Extras-devel repository index out of control?
Hi, even I have noticed now that apt uses a lot more space than it used to. One reason is that the package index files in the repository contain entries for multiple versions of a package. This increases the size of what apt has to download, process, and store significantly, and for no real benefit. For example, http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/dists/fremantle/free/binary-armel/Packages is about 13M, and has 25 versions of conboy-midgard listed in it, and 29 versions of gpxview[1]. I don't know if there is a mechanism in place to control this growth, but there should be. I think it would be fine to retain only the most recent version for each package in extras-devel. We can still keep older versions in the pool, and we can even make a extras-history repository that indexes all these old versions. But for extras-devel itself, I think having only one version is best. [1] But only 5 versions of mussorgsky.

Re: Programmatically showing the desktop in Fremantle
From: obb770 obb...@gmail.com Given that if there isn't a good way to do this, then it might not be fixed in the Fremantle lifetime - is there an ugly way to show the desktop? like simulating pressing the right place on the screen, somehow getting into non-public API of hildon-desktop, or something else? One option would use the current hildon-desktop a11y support. But probably it isn't really useful, as to do that you would require to install on the device libbonobo, at-spi, cally, etc. Then you could access to the tast-switcher button and click on it, or simulate the X event on the screen. Anyway, as I just said, this solution doesn't seems really comfortable, and seems a über-workaround.

Broken state of repositories
Hi On my N900 I have all three Extras repositories enabled (normal, testing, devel) to check what is going on in Maemo5 world. The problem is that some time ago there was (a bit crazy) idea about pushing everything from Diablo extras to be built for Fremantle. OK, some good apps arrived that way (hail Claws, die Modest) but there are some strange things too. For example: we have Frozen Bubble (awesome game) but it is not installable: Nokia-N900-42-11:~# apt-get install frozen-bubble Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: frozen-bubble: Depends: perl (= 5.8.3-3) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages Nokia-N900-42-11:~# apt-get install frozen-bubble perl Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: perl: Depends: perl-modules (= 5.8.3-3osso11+0m5) but it is not installable E: Broken packages Nokia-N900-42-11:~# apt-get install frozen-bubble perl perl-modules Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package perl-modules is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: perl perl-base E: Package perl-modules has no installation candidate How it get into repository is unknown for me - it should not be there as it's dependencies should land first. Other thing: *-dbg packages in extras-devel. OK, this is repo for developers rather then users but can't we move such packages into debug section where they should reside? Developers will fetch them by apt-get. Another: usbcontrol - this is 770/n8x0 package not usable on n900 due to official lack of usb host functionality. Why it is in Fremantle? Yet another: all those extras-devel packages which depends on maemo-select- menu-location package which do not exists at all in Fremantle. We have nearly one hundred of them. Many packages do not have description even - just name of one line of information. Why we have that? Maemo always was mentioned as based on Debian but for me (as user of all versions of Maemo) it looks rather like it was maybe years ago. We do not even try to get close to it with quality of community packages. How can we improve situation?

Clutter and text rendering issues
I'm not entirely sure this is the right place, but I imagine it's an n900-specific issue... Anyway, when using clutter 1.0 to render text (either the one in extras-devel, or one I compile myself), if you change the colour of the text at all, it renders each glyph as a white box [1]. I'm not sure why this is the case, but there's an unanswered post in the forums about it as well [2], so it's not just me. Any ideas? I would ask the Clutter mailing list, but this clearly isn't an issue with Clutter in general, just it running under the OpenGL ES implementation on the device. (I haven't tried with clutter 0.8, since it doesn't have all the features I need, but I suspect it works there, as otherwise other apps using it would be having issues) Andrew [1]: http://www.aeracode.org/static/screenshot01.png [2]: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=455407#post455407 ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

apt-get pinning Extras repositories
Hi, Quite recently the extras-testing and extras-devel repositories had a Label: extras-testing set in the Release file. This allowed me to use /etc/apt/preferences to pin the testing/devel repositories to a lower priority, so that I wouldn't need to worry about getting unwanted upgrades from them. But recently, these labels vanished from the release file, and the extras and extras-testing Release files seem identical, allowing no way to pin them. Could the repo maintainers add the Label back, so that pinning would still be possible and easy?
