Well, it depends, for example, there are to different packages:
gstreamer-tools and gstreamer-tools-0.10, they are widly used, no one complains.
This happens when there are two APIs to maintain, if that's the case then it makes sense.

Well, that means you have few versions of the same software installed, if you have read the first post in which I explain step by step what is happening with every new version and what you should do in order to uninstall it and install properly newer version, you would not get any problems what so ever. So please, anyone who has some problems check first the first post (which is in fact something like 2 A4 pages long, so all the possible information is there).
I only installed 0.3 - but I noticed the wifi connection settings were changed, and that was the reason.

hmm... wifi connections should not be changed, It does change the connection settings, when it needs to send an e-mail, and then reverts them back, unless you installed the app, while it was actively reporting.... In that case, the process could have been killed before it managed to revert the settings back.

Must have been that, then.

I couldn't run the config again, also. When I tried to run the binary, I got a segfault after a "QtGTK or GtkQt" or something error message.

Finally got around to installing this, and unfortunately it doesn't work for me. I use a bluetooth GPS receiver with my N900, so when I activated the program, I got an error on the phone about "unable to activate GPS, Try again?". Then 5 mins later, got a text on the other phone saying "Timeout set for GPS has expired!"

Can you make the next version of your program force the internal GPS to be used?

Hi, sorry i know this must have been asked before..
I normally use -ask everytime- in my internet connection

but since I installed this, it keeps going online by itself, sometimes wifi sometimes gprs... I havent even enabled it by sms yet...

either this is a bug or its something to do with settings??

Have you installed it from repos? It should have been fixed in 0.3.

Please read the info in the first post!

CM4397.ENC not found in /ETC/OMAPCAM/ is not supposed to be there. It has been valid for version2

I have 2 screens in configuration wizard with warnings, how not to **** it up :D and few more comments on other screens. Please read those. There is some reason I have put it there.

Great comment, I have not thought about such case before. I will try to make it work in future release.
