right so 2 year necro... bad starting point i know but its the most relevant thread and im tired of finding myself back here though my searches.

Basically, ive been getting errors on every apt-get; the errors point to PostgreSql:
Code:
... can't open /usr/share/postgresql-common/maintscripts-functions 
dpkg: error processing postgresql-client-8.3 (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
.... so thinking it was something id installed when playing around with another app, i removed it, i couldnt even apt-get remove it until i deleted scripts in mainscripts-functions.. no more errors at this stage

...but now the indexing of my media files has stopped and it wont restart with the usual commands....i presume one of the jobs postgresql was doing was indexing my media...

no matter what i do i cant get it to re-install. Ive tried app manager, not there, apt-get with devel and testing enabled, and ive tried using this:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...8.3.3-0maemo1/

but im getting the same messages as before, even when i get the package and try to install it manually with dpkg -i.

any help thoughts or contructive criticism welcome.. not really getting very far atm.

EDIT: fixed tracker by deleting the cache file in /var/tmp/tracker-user/ , still working on postgresql
