Broken packages waiting for a maintainer or a deletion
Update:
See the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey..._video_game%29 Old info: Since this thread started collecting broken packages I've changed the title. Please a) try contacting maintainers and post results by updating the post where you mentioned the package as broken; b) or just add that you don't want to so someone else would. waiting for status: minigpsd http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...57&postcount=9wifi-switcher http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...2&postcount=10 maemoreactor simonknowsmaemo netmon http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...7&postcount=15 a) meld (one of my favourite tools! :( ) http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...0&postcount=13 b) pc-connectivity-manager see below Code:
$ sudo apt-get autoremove --purge |
Re: Removing pc-connectivity-manager
What is your question?
I do not get it. Here are my questions: Why did you say 'Yes' to this list? Which of the packages listed would you want to get rid of? |

They've disabled receiving private messagges. I'm not in a mood to hunt them on google, anyone else want to try? |

There's no bugtracker and no bugzilla. Should be an easy fix if its worth bothering but I don't want to attempt to fix a DOA package, I wouldn't use. However from a quick search there maybe other bugs http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...3&postcount=13 Does anybody use it successfully on PR1.3.1/CSSU? Should the package just be removed from the Repos as broken? Last changelog file Code:
pc-connectivity-manager (0.7.14) experimental; urgency=low |

This way they may get repaired in the future but are un-installable to people that cannot fix them (people without scratchbox etc). As an idea, if when things are deemed unstable and pulled from the repos maybe a warning could be send out on updating CSSU or whatever. Some users may have "stable-unstable" packages with no easy way of telling them. If not on TMO. wifi-switcher is another broken package I believe. In addition @int_ua what was that package you found with the broken QSettings? Did that get repaired? |
Re: [bug] postrm script of pc-connectivity-manager: IFS=$'\n'
Going off-topic in letter but not spirit: is there a sticky thread in the forum for identifying broken packages? There should be.
Hopefully with the new Hildon F. setup this kind of decision could be entertained. |

RIP was fixed and one of PS emulators needs checking. Anyone? :) But it's not critical until option names don't collide. Quote:

Also, meld:

It could be as simple as a wrong dependency: python-gnome2 vs. gnome-python (they are also conflicting packages). After installing gnome-python there is a gnome module. But meld is uninstalled in the process. |

I suppose this is more related to the other thread and I will continue on there. Quote:
Also ivgalvez was building a list of packages for promotion and demotion. Packages to be removed/reported should include:- maemoreactor - duplicate package reaction-face-off simonknowsmaemo - duplicate package simonkm midi-support? netmon - randomly crashes, shows dbus errors before crash if run in terminal. I am certain there are many more. Check out my wiki page I started to make for contacting maintainers for promotion of stuck in Testing Apps. I am pretty sure when we take control of the repo's fully this will be addressed, the issue is it's not easy to get your packages removed as a maintianer. The best thing to do with broken packages is bump the [Announce] thread and/or e-mail maintainer if no luck report as DOA. On bugzilla and/or wiki page? |
Re: Broken packages waiting for a maintainer or a deletion
I just noticed a sticky
"can't install some apps(or update)" : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=48938 So let's collect only packages that install fine. |
Re: Broken packages waiting for a maintainer or a deletion
glogarchive and gonvert are broken too while I remember.

Also it's a known fact glogarchive hasn't wored since PR1.2 there are multiple threads on it. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=57841 |

I didn't have time to find the links at the time. Are you using an older version? |

Re: Broken packages waiting for a maintainer or a deletion
K9Call and DrLaunch do not function correctly in CSSU.
This is due to the desktop rotating and the applcations rotating 90 the other way. IMO DrLaunch is obsolute with CSSU. Also reinstalled Gonvet on both devices and it fails as above. |
Re: Broken packages waiting for a maintainer or a deletion
Theme Customizer installs version 0.3.66 hildon-home on installation.
This is a very out of date version. |
