For some reason, extras-devel isnt working with with this version of PR1.3... i get an error that goes like.

apt-get: ignoring version from wrong domain: apt-transport-https maemo13.1+0m5

i looked around and other people had this problem.. they just reflashed...

i tried going to wiki.maemo.org, but it seems to be down.. well atleast from my computer...

really? cause i tried everything...

just to get right..

Catalog name: Extras-Devel

Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/

distribution: fremantle

components: free non-free


is the above correct?

the sole purpose of this is that i want to install the NitDROID..
and when i type:

apt-get install nitdroid-installer

it says that i couldent find the package..

Very true, even with the global firmware, extra-devel don't always work. Sometimes a simple restarting solves the problem, other times, the extra-devel server simply goes done.

I also use the ME version and once in awhile I'll get the same .. I usually just wait a little bit maybe re-boot and it comes back..I think it's more a server thing than the firmware..

but does it show that it failed to load the repository? cause it doesnt even say anything, no error comes up, but i can notice the apps from extras-devel dont show up. Then when i check the log it say ignoring versions from wrong domain...



Do you get the same problem?
