  • canola2-theme-deepblue 1.0.0-maemo4
  • canola2-tuning-plugin 0.1.0-maemo1
  • canola2-youtube-plugin 0.1.3-maemo1

Can't upgrade to 2.0.0-beta9-maemo3. I click on Update, OK, OK, and get "Unable to update canola2. Some application packages required for the update are missing." Details provides:

"Application packages missing:"
  • libfreetype6
  • libglib2.0.-0
  • libhildonfm2
  • libosso1
  • python2.5-terra
  • canolad
  • libfreetype6
  • libssl0.9.8

My log shows:
hildon-application-manager 2.0.2
[ Some installed packages are broken! ]
apt-worker command 4 already pending


That's not exactly a useful list of broken packages -- it's just a count. How are you supposed to find what's broken if all you've got is a number of the pkgs that are broken??? I've not had any problems with any other packages I'm running on the system.

But more to the point of this thread, how do I upgrade Canola2 if it thinks it's broken? (When in fact, it works quite well and is definitely NOT broken!?!)
Hi, Alphaman. It seems that it's not a Canola2 issue, but something wrong with application manager itself (the 'broken packages' warning accounts for an unsuccessful previous attempt of installing/upgrading/removing something). If you could, please, run as root, in a terminal, 'apt-get -f install' and paste here the output, we could judge better what is happening.
