Hi, folks:

I think it'd be a good idea to maintain a thread where we upload our favourite list of reposirtories. We may add new repositories in benefit of everyone. Here's mine:

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
#maemo:essential
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ mistral user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/non-certified/ mistral user
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ scirocco free non-free

At this link I also explain how to maintain your list of repositories in your tablet, even after reflashing: http://sebas-nokia770.blogspot.com/2...ositories.html

Salut.
Sebas.

I got to thinking about this and why not just ask our good friend Google on what repositories exist? Inspired by this site, I created a Google query to search for repositores.

Mistral repositores:
intitle:index.of "mistral" +"Packages.gz" -htm -html -php -asp "Last Modified"

Bora repositories:
intitle:index.of "bora" +"Packages.gz" -htm -html -php -asp "Last Modified"

If someone had the knowledge, ambition and time to help out the community they could grab the Packages.gz from the sites, compile a database of applications and compare them to what's stored at http://downloads.maemo.org to find what's missing.

Or, someone could parse the URLs returned into a master repository sources.list. Another idea would be to create a custom search to find a repository hosting a particular application.

I'll just have to applaud you for utilizing google in a way I wouldn't have thought of.. (at most I would have searched for 'repository+bora').. Now added as permanent bookmark here!

It won't be comprehensive as it's not mandatory to use the Maemo release codenames in peoples' repository names.

However, still... very cool.

How about adding singleclick.install files for us n800 owners...

https://stage.maemo.org/svn/maemo/pr...repository.txt

That'd be enough for consumer end users. But (don't know for sure, correct me if I'm wrong) I think this way you can't get updates, nor new apps uploaded to the same repository, nor libraries you may miss, nor ...

Seb - Have you used a singleclick.install ?

It simply add the repository to the Application Manager...

I didn't know. Never used it at all. I thought it was like those deb packages that you can download and directly install, without adding any repository. Sorry

The .install will add in the repository to the sources.list if it doesn't already exist and optionally install the package for you. You'll then get all the updates and dependencies.

Hi ive just recently got my 770, its up to date with the latest O/S, my question is are all the repositories listed above supposed to be installed ? well not supposed to be but to make life easier ? I know that there are only 2 in mine at the moment, if i should add all them can someone tell me yes its a good idea or not?thanks !
