lardman: perhaps don't use "diablo", I used "maemo" instead in my experimental repo and it seemed to work for me.

PS: I like your rockets page, although most of the links on it are dead now.

Again tried many thiongs, but no install.
Is there a *complete* package of this app ?
Code:
pocketpenguin:/media/mmc2/download/Maemo-OS200x# apt-get libreadline5
E: Invalid operation libreadline5
pocketpenguin:/media/mmc2/download/Maemo-OS200x# apt-get install libreadline5
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libreadline5: Depends: readline-common but it is not going to be installed
  qalc: Depends: libcln5 but it is not installable
        Depends: libqalculate4 but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
pocketpenguin:/media/mmc2/download/Maemo-OS200x# apt-get install libcln5
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libcln5 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libcln5 has no installation candidate

The right settings for the repo are:

Url: http://people.bath.ac.uk/enpsgp/noki.../binary-armel/
distribution: ./
components: (blank)

It should work.

The problem is in the Packages file, the Filename field for the packages are listed in the ./ directory. To work with the distribution and components fields, the Filename fiels should be the complete path: "/dists/diablo/main/binary-armel/package.deb". Probably you are creating the Packages file inside of the directory with the packages without consider the complete path, no?

Btw, Qalculate looks really nice with a bit of hildonization it will be very useful for me, specially the statistics part.

Yes, you have to run the dpkg-scanpackages command from the repository root.

What does this mean ?
Does dpkg -i xxxxx create a directory ?
Should I edit something ?
What should I exactly do ?

Open the application manager, go to the menu, Tools->Application Repositories (or similarly called)->New and add those lines in its correspondent field of the dialog.
It should refresh the repositories automatically, search qalculate in the list, and install it.

Try this:

Url: http://people.bath.ac.uk/enpsgp/noki.../binary-armel/
distribution: ./
components: (blank)

(where (blank) means write nothing)
