Helped me a lot, love the search button :) :p

yes it did but some times when i try and use App man it still says no catalogues in use then the next time it works seems to be a bit hit and miss so just gonna use xterm now

Re: can't install some apps(or update)

Hi, I start also with a problem here, not wanting to start a new thread.
In program manager I am unable to install or upgrade any apps: no space, free some memory.
In x-terminal I see I have still 76Mb in rootfs and have no problems to install new programs.
now using apt-get upgrade gives these lines:
<the following packages have been kept back:
libsdl-mixer1.2
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded>
Has this to do with not being able to upgrade in program manager?
thanks for any help.

Re: can't install some apps(or update)

Yes, /home/opt 152 Mb = 8% of 2 Gb left.

broken applicaton manager

broken application manager
Dear Maemo people: I went to the app manager on my N900 to look for updates. the initial screen says "operation failed". Nevertheless, I asked for "updates". I again got the yellow ribbon saying "operation failed". I said "refesh". It started to work and showed a progress bar. but after a while it was "operation failed" again. finally I selected "uninstall" It said I have no apps installed. But I have 3 or 4 including two from extras-devel * I saved the app manager's log file. it is attached. it says things like
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle_ssu_apps_._Pac kages

Indeed. I don't seem to have that file. the closest I have is
downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle_ssu_002_._Pack ages

I have tried this several times over several days with the same result. My internet connection is good. I can download demanding web pages and audio streams. My available memory in rootfs is 87 meg per df command. My OS version is 20.2010.36-2.002

Are you having this problem?
What does it mean that this malfunction has developed?

That should clear out any old, broken metadata it has and force a complete redownload.

Re: broken applicaton manager

thanks rob1n. that worked. Application manager seems fine now. best tw

Re: can't install some apps(or update)

Hi,
I have an issue, when I run the xterm apt-get upgrade, I get:

The following packages have been kept back:
libqtm-12 libqtm-12-contacts libqtm-12-declarative
libqtm-12-location libqtm-12-messaging

libqtm-12-serviceframework libqtm-12-systeminfo
libqtm-12-versit

Why I can't update these? (sorry if my question is stupid, I'm a noob)

I have problem with easy-chroot. I cannot install or reinstall it now, but bug first occurred by updating to latest version. This is a log fro fapman:

How are you trying to install it - app manager, fapman, apt-get, dpkg, via Ovi store, or what?

apt-get update && apt-get install -f

libqtm12 is the latest version of the Qt mobility libraries. These are libraries for accessing location, orientation, etc. information in Qt programs. Previous releases provided the different individual libraries in separate packages, whereas the current one bundles them all into a single package. That's why upgrading will remove the old individual packages. It's perfectly safe to go ahead with this upgrade.

you need to disable the enna repository geexbox, and then try to do the install. The error message is actually complaining about the dependencies wanting both libeina0 AND libeina-svn-05 installed. The geexbox supplied version of software (some packages are required by canola) depend on libeina-svn-05, and the regular repository stuff depends on libeina0.

Hope this helps.

I'm having the same problem on a supposedly brand new, never used N900. Canola2 was the first thing I tried to install from the app manager, and I'm getting the libeina0 conflict. Nothing mentioned in the manager about enna, and no geexbox repository enabled. Not sure what to do to try and fix this.
