First problem:
Maemo.org theme is stuck on the device. Stuck as in, it's on there, but,
it only kind of works,
I can not uninstall
and I can't reďnstall
Second:
Repos disappear and reappear in app manager.

This is how I got in this situation:

Before I started the 1.1 update i disabled all repos except the nokia update repo, to get as much free space in rootfs as possible without having to uninstall something. I got the usual backup message at the beginning of the update so went ahead and after the backup, the update informed me about having to update with the PC.

NSU had only the privious minor update wich I had installed already, but having read on the forums that it is probably a problem with apps from /devel, I figured a clean install might be a good thing.

I reflashed the minor update and on a clean install I updated 1.1 and then went on to put the backup back.

Apparently the backup remembers that you disabled the repos, so from the last backup I could only get all contacts/calendar/settings/apps from nokia, but not the apps from other repos.

I tried to activate the repos and then only update the apps from the backup but apparently that is where it remembers the active repos, so to no avail.

I got the apps eventually from a previous backup. Although I got 2 messages about files having the same name, and chose to rename them... Which files, I hear you ask... No idea...

When it came to the maemo.org theme it said it could not install but afterwards I noticed it showed up in the uninstall part of app manager. But I could not uninstall it from there. It also shows up in the updater but can not update.

when I try to choose it from the desktop it shows up as @THEMENAME@ but with the correct symbol an it works, I can select it. (I guess it's the latest update because it uses the correct symbols in app manager.)

The second problem is probably not related to the theme :
App manager seems to have problems with the repos list. Twice already since this last update it lost all repos. After a reboot it has to reload the list for a few seconds an the list is back. My first guess: It's one of those files that got renamed and now there are 2 files in the same directory with the repos list of wich one is created empty.

I don't know, if your problem with the @THEMENAME@ Theme is solved but i found a solution for this prob. I've connected to my device via SSH. In /usr/share/themes there was a directory named "example". The included index.theme file said that the themes name is @THEMENAME@. After deleting the whole directory "example" the problem was solved.

€dit: After deletion the free space of my root directory got increased by about 5-7 MB.
