I just upgraded the sliderotate to match the latest SSU. (seamless my ***)
The version numbering has also been changed to reflect the needed SSU version.
Therefore current version is 4.2008-36-5.28 where .28 is the sliderotate version prefixed with the current SSU.

I had a lot of trouble getting the latest SSU installed because I ran out of space.
My solution was :

Code:

mkdir /media/mmc2/archives
mv /var/cache/apt/archives/* /media/mmc2/arcives
rmdir /var/cache/apt/archives 
ln -s /media/mmc2/archives /var/cache/apt/archives

and redo the installation.

If you already have sliderotate installed, you may not be able to do the SSU.
remove it, do the SSU and reinstall sliderotate using Application manager.

To make things even worse, this seems to fail sometimes.
If this happens, it must be installed with apt.

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install -f
apt-get install sliderotate

I will look into the installation problems as soon as possible, but this will have to do now.
