I have released an updated GPE Beta. It is currently available in the Diablo extras-devel repository and I should shortly have it available in the Fremantle, Bora and Gregale repositories. Please provide feedback if you install and test this release as I would like to release this as a general update (in the Extras repository) in the next few weeks.

If you are using Diablo or Fremantle you can see the changes for each component as the upgrade description in the Application Manager. However, Bora and Gregale AppMgr do not show this so I will update the first reply to this message with the full list of updates.

This is primarily a bug-fix update to the previous Beta release. No major new functionality (except Fremantle support, of course).

Although the stable update will be made available in the Extras repository, this beta release is available in the "extras-devel" repositories (I will promote the fremantle version to extras-testing once I have done some initial testing). To see the update you should add a catalogue to the Application Manager as:

Catalogue name: extras-devel
Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel
Distribution: your distribution name: gregale, bora, diablo or fremantle
Components: free

Note: even if you already have this repository set up, it is important that the Application Manager gets the latest list of packages. To force this, open up the repository entry as if you are going to change it but just click on OK. When you Close the Catalogue list the application manager will say it is "checking for updates".

After refreshing the package list and checking for updates, the application manager should offer to update whichever of the the GPE applications you have installed: GPE Calendar, GPE Contacts, GPE File Manager, GPE Timesheet, GPE Todo or GPE Audio Player. The version should be 2.8+maemo+svn20100128-1 or later.

I strongly recommend that you disable the extras-devel repository again after you have done the upgrade as it contains unreleased versions of many programs which you will not want to update.

I recommend a reboot after doing the upgrade so it can load the latest gpesummary.
