I didn't know that, thanks.

Hm... I thought .install is *the* way to install. What's the alternative? And Application Manager used to be able to detect duplicate repositories before (when enabled through .install), is this not so in Maemo 5?

Of course your first point about Extras being enabled by default makes these questions somewhat academic - I will simply remove Extras from .install.

It's just that I find dealing with Maemo infrastructure painful and generally unpleasant, so I avoid it. Or call me lazy
