Mine's broken - aka black. Is is because I changed the desktop wallpaper?

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

It looks for /etc/hildon/theme/backgrounds/wallpaper1.png and if it can't be found you get a blank background (assuming you haven't copied a custom wallpaper to /root/.fapman/wallpaper.png).

Don't have one. I have a wallpaper1.jpg

This sounds like a handy feature (especially when the display turns off). Would be nice if you could add this hqh.

And could you please add blacklisting for upgradeable packages?

Thanks

This app is a freaking lifesaver!

I would like to bring to your attention a problem I have noticed.

I have installed navit on my device according to the instructions in this post http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=383

Since then, I have been unable to install any software using fapman. It gives me error messages (see attached file for information from fapman log). I have not had similar problems with the hildon application manager.

Many thanks.

Have been using this app for over a week. Works fast enough for me even on 2G.

One thing I noticed is I can upgrade fapman from fapman :) I didn't expect it to work but it did. Great job!

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

imo it is really stupid to put a bugtracker link leading here. but I've found one bug:

enabling a repository within fapman enables it in HAM too and HAM dialog shows that the repository is disabled.

what about saving repository list separately within fapman, loading the correct ones in startup and reverting to old ones when application is closed?

this is pretty major conflict with system package and needs to be fixed if you want to get this to extras.

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

it wont let me download any app because i updated the pbap dependencies

Re: [Announce] Faster Application Manager (Maemo5)
 

Little offtopic but relates to this.
I have all repositories enabled. Could someone please explain what happens when you run apt-get update in xterm (as root). I really like fapman but imo just upgrading your software or actually fetching package list takes too much time. When i run apt-get couple of times in a day it downloads almost 5-7 megabytes of stuff every time. Excuse me but Wtf? couple of kilobytes would be understandable. It just takes 10-20 secs and it just too much. It looks like it's doing diff for lists but i do not believed that it's getting incremental update. What the heck it's downloading and why it's in end gzipping stuff? Freaking slow.

also i noticed that Apt-get upgrade kept some packages back like qvernote but fapman and official app manager asked to upgrade app.
