Create a "earthcomber.install" file and open it with the file manager.
Code:
[install] catalogues = nokia-ovi-store package = earthcomber [nokia-ovi-store] id = ovi file=variant-catalogues

Save the following script to file "oviinstall.sh"
Code:
#! /bin/sh
INSTALL_FILE=/tmp/application.install
PACKAGE_LIST=/var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle1.2_ovi_._Packages
PACKAGE=$1
echo "[install]" >${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "catalogues = nokia-ovi-store" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "package = ${PACKAGE}" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "[nokia-ovi-store]" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "id = ovi" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
echo "file = variant-catalogues" >>${INSTALL_FILE}
dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest='com.nokia.hildon_application_manager' /com/nokia/hildon_application_manager com.nokia.hildon_application_manager.mime_open string:"${INSTALL_FILE}"
Execute it:
Code:
sh oviinstall.sh earthcomber
To list all avaliable (free) pacakges in the OVI repository type:
Code:
grep "Package: " /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle1.2_ovi_._Packages

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?
