OK. We are also discouraged from having root access on the device ;-) 
The hazardous part here was mainly installing old packages to new system 
because of old -dev packages in current SDK. Otherwise having SDK 
repository configured on device is pretty sensible thing to do for any 
competent developer just like root access (discouraged or not).

Thank you and apology for missing bug 3648. I should better check 
bugzilla next time. Sorry for creating too much noise too late.

Sorry for the delay. People responsible were waiting for some events
needed to publish the sources. Now they are available. The _only_
difference is the WiMAX related code that is not used by the devices all
you have.

(It is discouraged to install SDK packages in the devices. If someone
wants to do this fine but as the own post you link says it might be
*hazardous*.

This is how the process works. This time there was one exception because
the mentioned events related to this WiMAX code - see also
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3648#c3

Our apologies and hopefully this won't happen again.

Hi.
I opened the last week the bug 3648 about this problem. There is a
comment explaining why the sources aren't in the repository yet.

Sorry for the top posting, I am writing this in a small mobile client.

No answer, looks like people responsible are busy with more important 
stuff. Just an additional info - old SDK also hurts people when doing

The 4.2008.30-2 update was released 08-11-2008 so it is more than 3 
weeks now.

Does it make sense to report this as separate bug in bugzilla? Or is it 
in wiki 2010/100days agenda somewhere?
