I haven't gotten the application to load any comics yet.

If I open cbrpager and try to open a comic file in xterm it prints:

I tried to open numerous kinds of comic files so I don't think that the particular cbr file could be the problem.

Any ideas?
Well, there could be a few possibilities... One of them is that I made a mistake packaging, so cbz support requires that you install unzip with the build that's currently in extras. That's a mistake, I'm fixing this right now, and I'll try to post the fix ASAP.

However, I could not get it to crash in a debugger, so my only speculation at this point is that you don't have the unrar executable installed. Get it from maemo-extras. If this solves the problem, for .cbz files, install unzip or wait for the next release.

The program doesn't use temporary files at all anymore (it does everything with pipes), so free space shouldn't be a problem.

And the assertion failed messages are actually a bug in GTK+ which is innocuous from what I could tell (see: http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/mae...st/034761.html)

Otherwise, try opening the .cbr mentioned in another thread: http://www.mangashare.com/dl/Claymore_83/4028/ . I can guarantee that this one works if you have unrar installed.

If it still doesn't work, well, I'll have to add trace messages, because it looks like it's specific to your machine. Or you'll have to send me a link to one of the files that doesn't work (which you can trim to a page or two if you want to avoid copyright violations

Hope this helps!
