Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

How can I blacklist an application? I cannot find an option but I think that I read that it is possible to create a blacklist. Maybe there should be a button in the details window for a package to make it easier (more intuitive)!?

In the package details there's a black icon with an x on it, next to the world-like icon.

Great app!

I reverted to installing via commandline up until now (got so fed up with the brain-dead default installer), so this is brilliant.

Installing 115 apps as I write :)

Happy :)

Excellent application! Thanks for all your hard work.

Thanks for that but the icon is always greyed out so it is not possible to click it. For example when I want to upgrade installed packages libsdl-mixer1.2 is always listed but it would force the uninstallation of PR1.2. That's why I want to blacklist the libsdl-mixer1.2 but I am not able to do it.
Why is the button always greyed out (also for other packages)?

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

It won't work from upgrade window for some reason, you need the install package list > details.

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

That's a pity because on that page is not the mentioned libsdl-mixer1.2 listed :(
Maybe the developer could add the blacklisting feature to every page!?

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

Libs aren't user packages. To see them, click the filter button and list all packages. That should get you the package you want. (S > all, C > all (ADVANCED))

But, agreed, blacklisting should be available in the upgrade window as well. Oversight? Maybe in-development?

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

Yeah, I know how to show it but the libsdl-mixer1.2 library isn't listed on the install page because the package is already installed so I see no way to blacklist it currently :(

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

It is listed if you select the filter to installed. It doesn't work, however, it's still disabled. I guess we'll have to wait for a fix on this one, if not intentional. I'd also like to ban versions from the upgrade list.

Hmmm. Uninstall > blacklist > install? :)

Untested.
