I can only repeat:

Due to the autobuilder already using the PR 1.2 version, some packages cannot be installed anymore. This is nothing I can do about, as my package didn't change at all. The problem is pyside. Unfortunately you have to wait for PR 1.2 to come out for the n900.

I thought there was a way around that, I have packages that do update. I might not understand how the workaround works, though.

To all those who want to install Alarmed at the moment and have issues because of the PR1.2 autobuilder idiocy, here's a method that I assume *should* work:

1) As root, type this into a terminal to install unzip if you don't have it already. (Install rootsh and type 'sudo gainroot' to gain root.):
Code:
apt-get update; apt-get install unzip
2) download the old pyside packages and install them:
Code:
cd /home/user/MyDocs
wget http://stuff.moritzg.ch/pyside.zip
unzip pyside.zip
dpkg -i pyside*.deb
apt-get -f --force-all install
3) Install alarmed:
Code:
apt-get install alarmed
If this works for you, hit "Thanks!", else complain. ;-)

Let's hope PR1.2 gets released soon anyway....

shapeshifter:

I get some errors unzipping; but I get 2 files out:
pyside-qt4-gui_0.2.3-1maemo3_armel.deb
pyside-qt4-maemo5_0.2.3-1maemo3_armel.deb

zip won't even open on my computer. I'll try re-downloading shortly.

On the plus side (for me) I re-flashed and was unable to re-install alarmed. However, I forced it using dpkg. The gui doesn't work (obviously) but, since the scripts are now in /opt/alarmed, the alarms (saved in my pre-flash backup) work and call the scripts.

So my night/morning profile switching still works. I just can't add/remove/edit alarms right now.

dpkg fails with pyside-qt4-core (=0.2.3-1maemo3) not installed.

re-download using the new link I posted in the instructions, pyside-qt4-core is in there. also, you might need to run apt-get -f install like I added above after having run dpkg.

Thanks again, all squared away. Should be working fine now.

I did have to remove all the old alarms (kind of expected that).
