Detailed message is: "Unable to install 'mbarcode' Application packages missing: libdmtx0a libzbar0 mbarcode-plugins-all () | mbarcode-plugin"
version I am trying to install is 1.0.0-2, and I am using mbarcode_1.0.0-2_armel.deb.
I am using "Maemo 5" (as displayed by "About Product" in config.
I assume I can force dpkg to ignore the compatibility problem, but I don't think it is correct way of installing it and it may not work as expected. Compatibility checks made for reason.

In any case I'd try removing all the plugins, then re-install (this may force mBarcode to be uninstalled while you uninstall the plugins).

Glad you've got it working anyway.

No, I still cannot get through how to install it on my n900, problem is that in application manager I have "maemo.org" catalogue that points to "http:://repository.maemo.org/extras/", Distribution is set to "fremantle-1.3" and Components to free non-free. And MBarcode is NOT IN A LIST of applications that can be installed. There are many apps available, but MBarcode is not one of them.

Is there some way to hook up mbarcode with a Windows PC so that the numerical code could be easily transferred to the clipboard in Windows?
I have tried to find a mention of this topic in the past but never found any, but I'm sure this would not be a very rare usecase for mbarcode.

or it would be awesome to get a bluetooth Com. Port opened and be able to just mbarcode in and it is pasted into whatever field is active. on the computer. Notepad, Excel, OPEN office?
