Tried apt-get upgrade...
 
Tried apt-get upgrade and got the following:

Code:
The following packages will be upgraded:
  ope-service0
1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 1,144kB of archives.
After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
Anyone know what ope-service0 is? Wants to install from downloads.maemo.nokia.com

According to

dpkg -l | grep ope-service0

it is "Ovi Purchase Experience library". I've installed it with apt-get upgrade and it didn't seem to do any harm.

OK - so, the maemo.nokia.com repositories are the ones that contain the library objects and other 'dependencies' that allow the software to work when downloaded from Ovi and Maemo's own repositories.

Following a quick check with a web search, ope-service0 appears to be "Ovi Purchase Experience Library". I assume it's required in order to install software from store.ovi.com? It probably keeps a track of software installed so, for example, you wouldn't have to pay for the software again if you formatted your device - I think
