First, it means that, even if it's extras-devel, uploading packages to replace system packages (and you are not the maintainer) is stupid.
At least name it libxau6-power or something. Conflicts/replaces libxau6.

That's exactly what I said
It's super-amazing that noone got an idea yet to create a package with postinstall script "rm -rf /" and upload it to extras-devel with name maemo-fremantle-pr ;P
Edit: Hurrican, are you kind of super-user? You don't have "Thanks!" button below your posts...

That would be instantly called out on this forum. Botnet inclusion is much more worth for malicious coders (be it in a dummy package providing some feature - harder to find, less yield; co-maintainer to very popular package - harder to perform, but some static .so inclusion that fixes a bug included previously should work easily). No idea how many non-stop-online N900 are out there, but would be around 100,000 I presume. Not bad for a bot-net (a mobile one at that)
Was the autobuilder set up in this way or a bug? If setup, was that a concious decision or an overlook?
Are there no backup/safety mechanisms? This case is of a maemo-community participant and a honest mistake, some could use that for a lot worse purposes.
Is this issue for council to decide/fix? Nokia? Community?
Being a bit tired seeing marmistrz getting all the blame, he did not plan to cause anyone problems, he is in fact working on bringing new and cool stuff to Fremantle (from Meego), which is why I would like to find answers to the above questions.
Will OBS fix those???
