TouchSearch for Fremantle
 
I've just uploaded a package to Fremantle extras-devel (and subsequently promoted it to -testing); it's called "TouchSearch".

It's a python-based Home plugin that allows you to search the web. It has been specifically designed for Fremantle so it should conform closely to the Maemo5 HIG.

On-device testing is required (it's written in Python, is a Home Plugin, and is written by me....).

Package page here.

Hi!

It sounds great, but I have no way of testing it currently. How about some screenshots? These always excite the masses.

Hi BrentDC, I'll try this out.

-
Installed... But where is it? It doesn't install an icon to the Main menu, it doesn't come as an entry to the Home / Edit mode / list of Widgets to be added to a Home canvas.

Is there some command line hack to start this?

Same here... Can't find how to use it (Maemo 5 requires "Desktop Widgets" to be installed via a menu accessed from the desktop).

It *should* appear in the list of Home Widgets in Desktop Edit Mode (it does on scratchbox).

Can you list the output of this at the CLI:

Code:

dpkg -S touchsearch
I want to make sure it installed OK. Thanks.

Here is the output:

Re: TouchSearch for Fremantle
 
Thanks. It seems like it installed OK.

Next test:

Code:

dpkg -p python-hildon
That should print out the package information of python-hildon. Specifically look at the Version field, it should be *maemo11. If it is anything less, do (with extras-devel enabled):

Code:

apt-get install python-hildon
...and tell me how it goes!

Big thanks, BTW!

Re: TouchSearch for Fremantle
 
It s completely normal, on scratchbox same problem appear. It s again the same problem than on the first hildon-desktop binding for diablo, the launcher module doesn't use the right path to search the home applet, but use instead /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/

So now it s works on my scratchbox too after copying /usr/lib/hildon-home/touchsearch.py in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/

Someone with an n900 can confirm this ?
