[Canola] Can't install. (with screenshot!)

[Syntra]

Anyone know why this happening? I've got an N800 with the latest OS2007 on it.

Anyone?

Did you install the base package ( maemo extras and maemo repositories ) ?
This looks like missing libraries packages.

The ones that are on your site in the tutorial? Yeah, I´ll try and re-install them.

EDIT: Tried that, even got rid of all my other repos. Installed Extras and Base again, got the same result.

[handful]

Can you use the command line?
(I'm asking that because it still looks like something wrong in your repositories list) so I would really need to take a lot at your repository file.

in the command line you could use the following:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list

and post here the result

#maemo:name Nokia Catalogue
#maemo:essential
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ bora user
#maemo:name maemo
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ bora free non-free
#maemo:name maemo Extras
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ bora free non-free

Exactly what I get.

Syntra,

Yeah, What I imagine you have the 2 bad repositories. You can do the follwoing :
Go to the application manager , and do a minor change in the 2 repositories

repository should be "repostory" so you would get something like that :

#maemo:name Nokia Catalogue
#maemo:essential
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ bora user
#maemo:name maemo
deb http://repostory.maemo.org/ bora free non-free
#maemo:name maemo Extras
deb http://repostory.maemo.org/extras/ bora free non-free


(just repository changed)

this will work out (I Hope) then you can after installing bring the repositories back to the original form (the correct one) as they will be probably fixed.

I used the above mentioned repository mangling trick for a successful install on bora. When trying to start, I only get this:
$ canola
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/canola", line 19, in <module>
import ecore.evas
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ecore/evas/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>
ImportError: libevas.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Any idea what went wrong?
Thanks!

Thank you very much, that worked. But you might want to modify your site, so that people don'nt have to do what I did.

I got it starting up by creating this link:
# ln -sf /usr/lib/libevas.so.1 /usr/lib/libevas.so.0
It is not a real solution though, as the result is not without a lot of graphical glitches.

I have still no clue as to why I have libevas.so.1 instead of libevas.so.0 in the first place.

Syntra: We cannot really modify because the official one can become OK at any time : / and this could break other stuff : /

It really sucks I know, but again : lesson learned we will have our own repo in next releases.

Hi Marcelo.

I know the state of the maemo.org hosted repositories has been shocking the last couple of weeks, but I really believe less repositories is better than more repositories - I hope you will continue to use the standard repositories in future once the infrastructure issues are resolved. I don't think it would be a good ide for your to roll your own repository - it's just not necessary once maemo.org get their act together (a big ask, I know).

try this... this issue has been looked at by me and i have a solution that seems to work!;) go to My post (http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14032) and try this method, all the apps should now install like a breeze

II haII have still no clue as to why I have libevas.so.1 instead of libevas.so.0 in the

The correct solution to my problem was to enter red pill mode in the application manager, then to update everything that begins with "libevas". I had "*.maemo1" versions of those, while there were "*.maemo5" ones available.

Shouldn't canola depend on maemo5 when maemo1 does not work?

Mich, weren't you using the keyboard and launcher EFL examples made by Gustavo barbieri?

Now I know why I love my -always working- BlackBerry so much. This madness with repositories working/not working is driving me nuts! No wonder my N800 is only used to browse the net while in the bathtub... But with the new and -much- slower browser this also isn't a treat. :(

[Nokius]

Thanks for your help:mad::mad:

have fun with your BlackBerry :p:p

Thanks for your help:mad::mad:

Sorry that I can't assist you with your problem. I vented my frustration a bit...
A solution might be to downgrade to OS2007. But I don't know if that is acceptable to you.

succes!

[xPAKxMaster]

did u see my post above?????:confused::mad: common man if u have os2008 my solution is known to work it has worked for 10+ ppl follow the link to the thread above

[Enginator]

I had the same problems trying to install CAnaola 2 on 2008 but I think it is partly because I selected "restore" after upgrading the OS to 2008.

That was a mistake as some buggy code may be revelaed that way. I did NOT need to rename repostory to repository anywhere after I reloaded2008 and then canceled without doing a restore.

All Apps now install fine including Canola 2 . I had tried 10 times at various times of day before i finally reloaded 2008. Since I had just bought the N800 restoring was not urgent to me. I just moved a couple thigs over to the Sd before reloading.

Hope this helps,
