Okay rebuilt the package properly now, sorry for the mixup; should be showing up in Extras fairly shortly.

Will we have to remove the old flipclock files from the messed up install?

Just to be safe I'd recommend uninstalling the old flipclock deb, then install the new one fresh from extras (it should be build 0.2.4-5). This should be done automatically during and upgrade, but just to be safe I'd do it manually.

Oops too late (installed flipclock on top of it). Has some minor issues, going try an uninstall and then an install. Does anyone know what files were placed in /bin and other directories that aren't suppose to be there? I can just remove them myself..
Edit: That seemed to have fix the issues I am having. But out of curiousity, on startup I get this prompt "user wallpaper not found" or not recognized or something. I'm guessing because the wallpaper I'm using for the n800 doesn't fit standard Unix naming conventions (e.g. it has spaces?). Doesn't seem to affect anything though.

The install worked for me after an uninstall.

Uninstalled the old version.
Installed the new.
A number of issues:
a) I placed the app in the personal launcher. It used to show as a specific icon there - now its a generic icon representing it,
b) Dragging up/down on the clock-display doesn't display the configuration options for me (sometimes it does appear but after a several second delay/freeze),
c) Changing from full screen to minimized and back froze the app twice for me.
d) There is no 'scrolling through of numbers' upon start of the application as there used to be - instead the screen is just dark for a few seconds,
It's basically useless for me at this point.
Is there a way to get hold of the version prior to this one?

) feature so I was smart enough to make the program check and notify the user if something go wrong but not smart enough to give more info...I always feel sorry to cause unecessary troubles...

I don't see these problems on my N810.

Interesting. To start off with do you get the flickering of digits as you got in the old version when you start up this one?
With three other apps open, all the same things happen but they take about 7 times as long. Perhaps it is swapping to virtual memory.
Maybe put up a "Loading ..." message?
