Please don't mention Red Pill. Thanks. dpkg -i or get it into a proper repository.

The reason it's complaining is because Application manager doesn't install packages that aren't in the section user/*. This is why the Extras-devel repository exists, to make installing much easier, as the libraries will just be pulled in automagically.

allnameswereout, fix your packaging. If you repackage something, the maintainer field needs to be changed to you, osmo needs to be in section user/* (hint, x11 is not a valid Maemo section), and you should probably clean up the suggests.
