No updates since 19-Jan-11.

That assumes that the repository we all see there is the same, and that we're not just looking at the most local copy of a distributed system (in which case a failure could have caused some copies not to update).

Are you able to move all the posts from the "[Council]" thread here except for the first post?

Yes, and that's an excellent suggestion. 155 posts from "[Council] Maemo 5 gets community OS updates" have been merged into this thread. That thread has now been closed. Please continue discussion in this thread.

Because, perhaps:
  1. It's a spare time activity, and they've actually been triaging the bugs (including dealing with the duplicates) and working on fixes
  2. Wading through this thread has become depressing with the number of people who aren't checking reported bugs the FAQ or even the thread itself.

This is my personal opinion having caught up on the thread after a few days travelling. Thanks to all of those who have been dealing helpfully with the incessant questions. I don't mind people asking questions, but I object to time being wasted answering the same ones again and again when they're clearly answered in at least four places.

Now the same questions are being asked on maemo-users. FFS.

Please state version numbers if you are seeing this weird behaviour. As far as I know, there has not been a new release of mp-fremantle-community-pr.

I would expect when we do there'll be a post in this thread.

Do you have another version of modest pinned? Check /etc/apt/preferences.

Apologies but you have been so good at answering queries earlier in the week I just wondering why it had all gone quiet, I wasn't demanding an answer!

I agree the continued queries regarding the shortcut & web browser bookmark etc are a problem but now this thread as grown to over 400 pages it will be difficult to find the answer if people even started looking them. I wonder if these two problems could be highlighted on the first page of this thread, with the solution for the first one, so that posters like me can just refer the poster to the first page when we see these questions rasied yet again, therefore allowing you guys deal with any new queries?

As far as my query with the updates it is odd that what appear to be usually relaible posters are suggesting that they have had updates when it appears there have been none so far.

Agreed but there is no sign of an update yet, I assume the Developers maybe testing it themshelves before rolling out, and we already know from the problems so far people are not using search, I am not really sure how easy it would be to find these two issues by using the search facility in any event.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU
 
yes anyhow updating 1st page will be a good thing
AFAIK rolling out an update took more than a week, anybody correct me if I'm wrong ..

The last post on that one states:-

Please continue discussion of this topic in the existing thread, "The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU".

And CLOSED at the bottom!!

That thread was merged with this one, I ddid make that suggestion myself a day days back, hence why it jumped from 200 posts to over 400 posts overnight, it just wasn't a frenzy of posters asking the dreaded shortcut/web browser bookmark questions!!

maybe they weren't CSSU updates then. but i definately got an update the other day called 'Maemo Community Service Pack'

Maintainer is Atilla Csipa
Version 1.0-5
Installs all hotfixes not yet been made part of a firmaware update.

Right. I knew that would cause confusion, but was told it wouldn't because it was "only for developers".

mcsp is a Forum Nokia "community" effort (which is appreciated) to bundle and ship Qt fixes to improve the cross-platform support of Qt on Maemo.

It is not related to the CSSU, although might be included in it (#11825).

Thanks for answer but I don't think your attitude will help in improving maemo if you will scare non-debian-guru testers.

I tried it, vote for bug and ask if there is a work around cause I need some functionality back.
I could not ask and reflash, but why?

Next time if it annoys you just don't reply please.

Anyway pointing exact version with apt-get works just fine and i can send attachments again.

As it is, it is a dependency for mad-developer and not much else (qmlreddit ?). Plus, currently it is in the development section of extras-devel... If that doesn't make it clear that it's a developer thing, then nothing will IMHO. I enabled it as a user-installable package recently (I didn't want to, but there were requests and even plausible use-cases on irc that I cannot recall at 2AM).

Long story short: MCSP is is the collection of updates that are part of extras, and can be cleanly (un)applied to a stock PR1.3 install (whereas the CSSU replaces system components from the community repo).

Please read the FAQ! It will teach you how to help yourself. No offence, but "still getting this error" doesn't give much information on how to help you anyway. Do you expect someone who is going to help you to wade back through the thread finding your posts to find out what "this error" is?!

Since so many seem so incapable, let me quote it for you:

There is one repo currently. And it's the -testing one. Developers may have custom versions for some very preliminary testing, but there's absolutely no guarantee of stability for the -testing repo. Honestly. Please believe me. It might work fine now, but the next repo might cause a problem which requires some apt-get-fu to fix. If you have installed the CSSU, you are testing it's bleeding edge. So expect blood.

People shouldn't be searching TMO, they should be looking at the set of reported, valid bugs:

Jaffa have you looked at the first thread on this thread recently as instead of now explaining what the CSSU actually is it starts with a post from Stenny saying ''where the hell is the documentation?'!!

Perhaps this explains why so many people carry on asking the same questions as there now seems no easy way to find out where the bugs are listed.

Any chance the first post what used to be there could be put back in it's right full place? Otherwise I feel it is safe to assume the regular questions we are seeing will continue.

Indeed, there's certainly nothing I can do about that. Whether or not one of the moderators can somehow insert a post before Stenny's; I don't know.

Sorry, I just don't get the mindset that a forum is a great knowledge management system. To install the CSSU people had to go to the CSSU homepage; that is where you should go back to see if your question is answered. There's even a sodding FAQ!

http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU

I'll report this post to the mods to see if there's a way a notice or something can be added to this thread with background information and persistent links to the relevant information.

If you are worried about entering "Y" are you sure you really are a "tester"? I suggest you read the thread a bit more.

fw190 2011-02-05 09:32

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU
 
Well I thought that entering Y will restore the old files which had been updated with CSSU. I've entered Y several times without thinking or asking so I thought that it's better to ask then mess the phone again. I read a few pages ot this thread but didn't find the answer to my question. Maybe I didn't look deep enough.

Those packages are unrelated to the CSSU, and are just being upgraded. Probably from Extras-devel. IMHO you shouldn't be doing arbitrary upgrades with Extras-devel enabled.

There is a bug open to merge the offline IMAP support, which can be tracked under #11832.

However, there's not a bug to track "the IMAP IDLE stuff". Have you got a link to the patches?

EDIT: More info here: http://blogs.igalia.com/svillar/2010.../#comment-3162 and https://bugs.maemo.org/3888

Short version: seems that some work would need to be done to prevent IMAP IDLE being an enormous power drain. If a developer wanted to pick up on it and make the PR_Poll() changes discussed, then it'd be includable in the CSSU, IMHO

l think it is the developers views if you need to ask then you shouldn't really test this download which may leaving you requiring a re-flash.

I think that You shouldn't be so smart and stop spamming this thread. I've already received my answer. Many times while having a problem when I havn't received help I just did a reflash. I just asked a question and since you don't get killed for it I think that I will do it from time to time. If you wan't do do something more stop spaming and telling people what should or shouldn't do and help out with the CSSU because from your talk I presume that you are a developer and you now a lot. EOT from me.

Why would I want to "spam" I thread which has nothing at all to do with me? I just answered a query when I was reading the thread, I didn't ralise you had to be a developer to post answers on here? Anyway hopefully the Developers will have far more posts than my 100 or so. Anyway EOT from me (whatever that means!).

I've previously inquired about adding a post at the start of a thread. Reggie says it's not possible.

That was one of the reasons I was hesitant to merge the threads.

Does anybody else having issue with charging? I installed cssu, and since then i cannot charge my phone. I am not saying it is because of the cssu, but it is suspicious. Just started to happen after installation.

Btw, is there a way to uninstall it? Or do i need to reflash? Can i even reflash without charged batteries?
