Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

Very nearly all patches are "I don't like new thing here is old thing again". They will never become part of the OS and people should stop investing so much time in things that inevitably break everything every single update. An exception is pichlo's character count (which implemented something missing, rather than replace the new version of x with the old version of x, and is now no longer needed because the feature has at last been added), and I think that's about it.

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

Thanks for the compliment but I would not necessarily agree that "nearly all" patches are about returning old things. I have currently (2.0.2.48) 17 patches installed. 6 of those are "return old x". Further 5 are of a questionable character that I doubt Jolla would be very keen to implement (disable volume warning, hide tutorial icon, free rotate...). The rest are about adding missing functionality (go to date in calendar, device lock faith text, maze lock...). If I count it correctly, the split is about equal among the three groups. Though I agree that 2/3 are of a kind that Jolla will never agree to incorporate into the mainstream.

1/3 is nuff (it seems to me)

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

IMO, this patching thing has gone too far. On both sides.
And I'm fine with what community does, after all, we like "open". But also some UI design decision on Jolla side is beyond me.
Why do we have to go to events view first to be able to pull down various switches? Most of them I use a LOT more often than I switch ambiance.
Recent contacts in People? WTF? We have that in Phone already. But we don't have a dialer in phone. For a most basic feature I need pulley menu.

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

I think they'll change those things eventually. A whole bunch of pulley menus which had only one or two items, and almost nothing on the screen with the pulley menu, have been changed to simple buttons already, for example in the data counters in Settings.

I really hope so. Minimalism is fine but I still prefer functionality over form.

Bricked after trying to update to 2.0.2.48
 

Hi @all...
I could need some real help here. I tried to upgrade to 2.0.2.48 and now stuck with jolla logo. All I can access is recovery menu.

I'm now trying to repair my packages with zypper from within chrooted rootfs but somehow the package 'libgpg-error' got removed by 'version --dup' before this happend.
And now the ssu plugin needed by zypper doesn't work without libgpg-error.so.0 library.

Can somehow probably provide me a link to the rpm, please? I'm guessing libgpg-error-1.10-1.1.3.armv7hl should be the right name.
but all my wget trial and errors for the proper url didn't work.

'zypper info libgpg-error' says
Repo: jolla
Name: libgpg-error
Version: 1.10-1.1.3
Vendor:meego

if this is of any help

My sailfish version is still 2.0.1.11 so I guess the package should be somewhere in https://releases.jolla.com/releases/...jolla/armv7hl/ shouldn't it?

Thanks in advance,

J4ZZ

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

Ok, I finally managed to get libgpg and found out that ssu re is already set to 2.0.2.48.

'zypper update' now only wants to update another 6 packages which I cannot download:
here's the list of the missing packages:
The main reason I cannot download from chrooted rootfs seems to be missing store credentials and dbus issues. (when trying to 'ssu ur' or similar I always get 'DBus call failed, falling back to libssu')

Can someone possibly provide those 6 packages, please?
Or help to debug this further... :(

Regards,

J4ZZ

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

Up and running again. A few zypper updates seem to have fixed it, even without the 6 missing packages. ;)

Re: early access SailfishOS 2.0.2.48 Aurajoki
 

Can anybody help me installing python on 2.0.2.48.

I tried the standard install through terminal:
pkcon install python
pkcon install python3-base

But it looks like those are not available for this Sailfish version yet. Since I get a message that the packages cannot be found Can I get them from anywhere else?

Thanks!
