Tried to install, but got a message that Installer was unable to update Panucci because something was missing. Python -Mutagen, whatever that is.

The package you're referring to is python2.5-mutagen. It is available in both the Chinook and Diablo Extras repos.

That warning is actually a good thing; it means that we've correctly listed the dependencies in our .deb ;). Since you're not installing Panucci from a repo (like Extras) the application manager won't install the needed dependencies (don't ask me why, it seems kinda dumb to me).

The solution is to simply install the dependencies manually and then install Panucci. Note: This will not be the case when 0.3 is uploaded to Diablo Extras, in that situation the application manager will take care of fetching all of the needed dependencies because you are installing from a repo.

To install the missing dependency run the following as root (see the original post for the full list of dependencies):
Code:

apt-get install python2.5-mutagen
Thank you for testing,

the general ones said it was to encourage the use of repos over .deb's, especially if the latter had no source attached alongside it...

I tried the apt-get install python2.5-mutagen (from root) and got a shopping list of can't do this, can't do that. Not sure what the problem is. Is there a way to install the python dependencies from application manager? It might work from there.

That's a very good point, I'll get to work setting up a Panucci-testing repo.

P.S. Panucci source code is always available from here and here. Also, if you want to build your own .deb from inside a scratchbox environment do the following:
  • Clone the git tree and "cd" into it: git clone git://git.nikosapi.org/panucci.git; cd panucci
  • Run "dch -i" to add a changelog entry
  • Run "make build-package" to generate the .deb

Could you copy/paste the error? I don't *think* you can install libraries using the application manager (maybe if you enable red-pill mode)...

I applied for an invitation to upload to Maemo Extras last week, but still have yet to get a response. Does extras-devel require an invitation as well?

If so, I guess I'll have to get thp to upload for me atm :)

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 
i think there may have been a issue with the upload access requests, i got the impression on irc at least...
