i guess thats a potential problem with extra-devel. you cant really say that you only want it to be used for a single app. at least not with the app manager gui (one could probably drill into the apt config guts and do all kinds of things).

if i try apt-get install tear libwebkit-1.0-1 i get libwebkit-1.0-1: Depends: libidn11 (>= 0.5.18) not installable so the missing package should be libidn11. if i enable extras-devel and apt-get install libidn11 i got installed libidn11 0.6.5-1 with no other package.
so if libidn11 0.6.5-1 from extras-devel should be considered unsafe you could include a safe version of libidn11 (>=0.5.18) in your repo. what version of libidn11 do you have?

I don't think there's any other libidn11 available anyway

Here's what my tablet says. I was right, I'm getting it from Chinook extras.

Code:
Qole-Deux:~# apt-cache policy libidn11
libidn11:
  Installed: 0.6.5-1
  Candidate: 0.6.5-1
  Version table:
 *** 0.6.5-1 0
        500 http://repository.maemo.org chinook/free Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Should I drop this deb in my repo as well? Probably should, just to make it easier for folks...

EDIT: I've added the libidn11 package from Chinook extras to my repository, so you don't have to add extras-devel or chinook-extras.

This is easily possible with apt-pinning ( http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html ). Not that I did try this already on a N8x0. But as Mamo is also using apt-get I don't see why it shouldn't work.

app manager gui should respect what you put in /etc/apt/preferences. i got it respect the pinning of a package in the past

i'm not so strong in apt-pinning, you could check this http://wiki.debian.org/AptPinning for further information.
you shouldn't need it anymore for tear

I can confirm that the new version in my repository triggers an update notice for users of previous versions. Both libwebkit and tear show up as updatable when I add my repository to my secondary tablet, which was running an older version of tear.

So hurrah.
