What? Why? How?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Reinstalling of qtirreco and renaming of etc/lird.conf does not solve my problem.

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

hm...

I looked at the source code, found what's wrong and kind of fixed it.

But now I'm stuck with packing it the right way, because the buttons and other resources are always missing.
I probably trying to fix it later this evening.

I attached the two files I changed to get the remote download working again. If someone knows how to compile and pack it the right way, we would all have a working version.
The version I attached is a quick and dirty version, just meant to get it running right now so please don't blame me for bad code :D.
It uses 'http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/' as the source instead of 'mercury.wipsl.com/irreco/webdb/' which is apparently down.

edit: I'm still to dumb to create a working deb package, but at least I got a binary I can share. I put it in the attachment...

to use do (probably as root):
mv /opt/maemo/usr/bin/qtirreco /opt/maemo/usr/bin/qtirreco_non_fixed
cp qtirreco /opt/maemo/usr/bin/qtirreco

Thanks! And dont forget give run permissions

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Added alphabetical division and finally created a deb package

It's a deb but for some reason I've got problems with dependencies, which actually should be complied.

You can install the deb with dpkg --unpack qtirreco_fix.deb
Or just replace the binary the way I posted above
Or replace the downloardremotedlg.h and downloadremotedlg.cpp in the project and compile it yourself.

Can I somehow put this back in the repository?

Edit: forget about the deb :D it's too big for an attachment :D

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

That would be a good thing :)

Dont know if you can reuse the same name as a update, but it is very easy to put a deb into the repositories.
And nothing prevents you from a slight renaming to show that it is a new generation of qtirreco.
Just follow the steps here https://garage.maemo.org/extras-assistant/
It will guide you thru every step.

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

sorry about the noob question but ...how can i install the src.tar.gz package???do i have to put it in the qtirreco folder???im really confused with this fix please explain it in a step by step guide ...please

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

erick2991, open qtirreco.gz with 7-zip to extract qtirreco file, which then place in phone's directory /opt/maemo/usr/bin/. That's all.

src.tar.gz package is for developers if they want to compile their own qtirreco file.
