Really, can't this be fixed??? I finally upgraded to fremantle pr1.3 and after reinstalling about 100 packages found that more than 10% failed because of a clash between optification and docpurge! AAARRRGGGGHHHHH!

Optification tried to move files that had been removed by docpurge!

Two FUBAR-Kluges clash!!!

List of some of the failed packages:
tar-gnu
wget
libopenjpeg2
libpoppler5
libpoppler-qt4-3
libsdl-gfx1.2-4
osso-abook-plugin-merge-contacts
theme-customizer
opendune

I managed to get most of them working by doing touch <missing file that should be optified>, and gave up on the rest in frustration. It's rather pointless anyway, since a system without documentation can not be used for serious work!

Oh, by the way, don't do

apt-get remove docpurge

mp-fremantle-generic-pr depends on it, so if you remove docpurge, you can't get OTA updates to Maemo any longer...

The easiest way of getting 'man' to work is still to install Easy Debian! Yes, it is easier to install a complete operating system in a chroot than to get man working!!!

I vote for optification, docpurge and other rubbish in the same vein being the worst decisions made in the history of Maemo-5! Why, oh why, didn't you properly use the large filesystems that actually exist???
