Yes, that's why I let it install from the repository this time. I usually only install anything locally. There doesn't seem to be any file "libhildon1" in the repositories that I could find.

It runs, it just says it can't install

No, I don't have rootsh installed. I can use a console (with instructions), I've used debian on a "proper computer" and I'm from the "age of DOS", but I'm not going to try random things unless I can find or figure out what's happening and how it's being fixed.

Maybe because opera shut down its support, the installation is trying to fetch things that aren't there any more???
