blueutilz update has been reporting that since before the repository "storm" so it' not related to that. I keep meaning to report it but keep getting sidetracked :p

Try clearing your log and checking your directories to see if a previous attempt left an "archive" folder...

Maemo Extra's is on it's face currently... Through App Manager it will just say download corrupt, because any file that's downloaded right now just gets this returned :

So when App Manager tries to get a deb file from there like say Quiver:

http://repository.maemo.org/extras/p...19-1_armel.deb

That's what gets sent to it... neat...

I wonder if the problem we have is not a new bug in the new version of OS2008... so many errors for all the users who updated to the new OS...

Anyone with OS2007? Do you guys have same problems with the repos those days?

I would almost guess Nokia is hosting the Extra repositories on a Windows server. :)

Not sure if it helps, but I am running os2007 and I was able to download and install the bomberman game without any problem today 12/21.

Has anyone noticed that repo's for OS2008 do not generaly include the distribution?

I still can't install Python 2.5 runtime. I have tried several times over the last few days but always get: "Installation file corrupted."

I assumed this was a Maemo overload problem, but maybe it is something else.

Any suggestions?

There are multiple files unavailable from the repository that are part of the python runtime install. I'm not sure if it is a permissions problem or not, but I was able to install runtime a couple nights ago prior to toasting 2008 on my N800.

I inadvertently cleared the device while it was in my holster, never pocket the device while in control panel.

Now I can't get it installed again either.

Yup I did the same and lost C2 but thanks to our search button and member wolf08 I found this...

and I at least am back to square 1. I'll wait out Python 2.5 maybe it will be out of beta soon anyway. :)

why should it stop, when, not only the repositories are screwed, but they couldn't even manage to give a sensible error code so that apt-get (and supposedly application manager) would report something understandable? (e.g. instead of "file corrupted" or "file size mismatch" what about "repository temporary unavailable".

This community is perhaps one of the places that Nokia should be paying attention to to gauge the good and bad... right now, more bad than good. A lot of communication happens here that we'd never have with Nokia directly, it seems.

But I'm sure that'll change. If only they were aware of the problems... which at this rate they don't seem too concerned with fixing. Soon enough, things might "fix" themselves.

Or perhaps not. But this place is the place to air out those grievances.

No way - it's only just starting! :)

I reckon you're looking at either 27 Dec or 2 Jan before Ferenc returns from vacation and bounces the servers resolving the problem. Seems like only one person manages the maemo.org servers and due to any lack of progress resolving the issue my guess is he's on vacation.

maemo.org and it's management really are beyond a joke.

It was something I found on my card today and deleated... just before most of the repo's cleared up.

Pro'ly just a co-inkydink...

In any event all the repo's seemed hosed last night. Now it is down to just the extras repo that unfortunately contains Python 2.5. So if you need Python, or any app that uses it's bindings including Canola2... no soup for you.

The work around is to disable "extras" for the time being and use the repo I copied a few posts up for Canola2.

I just did a re-flash, reloaded my apps and C2 and it worked flawlessly using the repo's (except extras and Py2.5 dependent apps)

BTW, I've reflashed and reloaded now 3 times in the last 24 hours trying to see if it was some kind of conflict between Py and C2... I didn't find any. :)

Oh, I hope that is not true, although I fear it is. So any poor sap who gets a tablet for Christmas is going spend Christmas day frustrated and disappointed.

If the repos are not fully back by Christmas day then maybe Reggie could post a bold warning right up front on this site. At least that would save the next wave of new owners from wasting their time on Christmas day.

I really don't want to add to the collective whine, but if Nokia was Apple then Steve Jobs would have had somebody killed for this.

My post was nothing more than a statement of fact. The people with the power to solve this problem do not frequent this forum, so complaining about it here (however good it may make you feel) will not accomplish anything.

If you want to try and get something rolling in the right direction, my best guess would be to call up Nokia Support and complain to them. It's the only way management is likely to pay attention to the problem.

General, I feel the need to vent, and this is the best available place! This situation (bin upgrades & repositories) being totally FUBARED is simply pitiful. Please, search cops and other self-appointed forum mods, STFU!

Re: Repo's seem fine now @ 12:00 EST, 12/21
 
I've been following this forum since 770 days and its gotten crazy lately so i understand reflex of discouraging rants, but do you have any reason to believe nokia actually does have a working plan for 'revamping' infrastructure?

I know maemo.org really needs new servers, (possibly new web software), upgraded network capacity, tiger teams for testing, and persons who oversee the Quality of Service. That is wise for future product growth and end user satisfaction.

So i understand the rant and there are solutions but sometimes to diffuse the rants you have to acknowlege your surface weaknesses... which (in this case) requires open source team to work with finance guys to get new servers, etc... not something that comes naturally.

They've got software development on track, product development on track, just no infrastructure. I would like to see them address these issues in a long term approach, otherwise i dont think the 'step 5' users will have attention span to tolerate these issues.

Not for me, I tried maemo mapper which depends on libgdbm3_1.8.3-2_armel.deb.

Not only does the repository look broken, but they aren't returning errors, so instead of getting an error you get what looks like a .deb file but actually contains:

The service is temporarily unavailable. We are very sorry for the inconvinience it may cause.

You got it. ;) Sending that "message" instead of a proper service error has many people confused beyond belief. Even worse, some are pointing the finger at OS2008.

I'm getting the sub process returns an error message when updating maemo extras using wi-fi, but when I use bluetooth to my phone it refreshes perfectly (although the download fails half way through)

Anyone know why this could be?

Re: Repo's seem fine now @ 12:00 EST, 12/21
 
I ran into this libgdbm3_1.8.3-2_armel.deb problem when trying to install the package
perl-modules. I found a version of this deb on http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo3.2/free/binary, so I just gave this a try:

wget http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae....3-2_armel.deb
dpkg -i libgdbm3_1.8.3-2_armel.deb

After this, I was able to install the package perl-modules.

Detlev 2007-12-25 21:54
Re: Repo's seem fine now @ 12:00 EST, 12/21
 
But maybe I should add that I'm not too sure what the potential harm is of using that other libgdbm3_1.8.3-2_armel.deb...
