I found a (possible?) solution by myself.

Code:

eventInfo["type"].lower() + " every " +
to
Code:

eventInfo["type"].toLower() + " every " +
since .lower() is apparantly deprecated - see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot...qt3.html#lower

The same error is possibly in line 212.

Is the maintainer of this application still around?

I have not had any issue with version 0.3.0-1 of this application, I have been using it actively for about 6 months.
Version 0.2.0-2 is in testing with 10/6 votes.

However the latest 0.3.0-1 version is only in devel and can't be voted on.
Looking at the changelog the latest version incorporates a fair few bugfixes some from the community.

Can we get this into testing and start to get it through QA?

Just out of curiousity, how difficult to port this to harmattan (N9), and will there be a port for this to harmattan planned?

If your a developer take a look at the source it's python IIRC.

At the moment we have been waiting for the latest version to be pushed to N900 testing so I doubt the developer has a port on the cards.

I can't seem to find the source though :( is the source hosted somewhere?
only found this after some googling http://maemo.org/packages/view/alarmed/

I have the impression the alarm(d) framework on the N9 is quite different from the N900. In that case I would opt for a new app and not spend too much energy on a port attempt.

You were just a few clicks away ;) If you click on that page on first link to alarmed 0.3.0-1, then on "Source: alarmed 0.3.0-1", you will find http://maemo.org/packages/source/vie...armed/0.3.0-1/ ;) There you can download tar.gz with sources and debian packaging rules :)

LOL, didn't notice that, thanks. Will try to muck around when I have time.

Re: [Announce] "Alarmed" scheduling App (supports automatic GPRS data counter resetting)
 
I call a shell script from alarmed to create an internet clock radio.

The first part of the script sets a "safety alarm" - it sets a one time only N900 alarm for 30 minutes from the present time, in case the internet radio station is not broadcasting, or the wireless connection has failed, or whatever.

The N900 alarm is set through alarmed's CLI:
Code:

#use alarmed CLI to set a safety alarm in 30 minutes
/opt/alarmed/alarmed.py -C --title='Clockradio Safety Alarm' -A --date='now +30 minutes'

That does set a one-time only N900 alarm, but unlike setting a one-time-only alarm through the N900's alarm screen, it leaves the entry in the alarmd event list, so that I occasionally must open alarmed & delete the old "safety alarm"s from each time the script was called.

Can anyone suggest a better command for creating a one-time-only alarm, one which will not leave an entry in the alarmd list after it is done?
