sudo gainroot apt-get update apt-get --force-yes -y upgrade
I had to reflash my 'phone yesterday (it wouldn't boot -- it's the first time I've had this problem since I've owned it and I'm not sure what the cause was), using the 'RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.203.1_PR_COMBINED_203_ARM' firmware.
Whilst reinstalling software, there were a couple of packages that I was unable to install via HAM/FAM due to them not being in the currently available repositories: 'libwildmidi0', required by 'CSSU testing', and 'bzip2', required by 'FileBox'. I managed to track down these packages in the mirror of the 'downloads.maemo.nokia.com' repository hosted at skeiron.org, and manually installed them by downloading them to my 'phone and using 'dpkg -i <package name>', since that mirror isn't set up as a repository that can be used by HAM/FAM.
I thought I'd point this out, in case anyone else has the same problem. I'm also wondering why this particular repository, which appears to contain a number of packages that are unavailable elsewhere, is not being hosted at repository.maemo.org.
Edit: I've just remembered that I also removed the installer for 'ForecaWeather' that came pre-installed with the firmware I reflashed and later realised that I actually wanted to install this app, which is also only available in the 'downloads.maemo.nokia.com' mirror.
