I have added the repo and no faults show up. Still it looks empty. I have searched for some programs but not been able to find them.
I have checked apt-get, apt-cache and HAM.. but nothing.

BTW - any chance of getting some of these packages into extras-devel? GNU Screen and git, for example?
I'm happy to help with that if you point me in the right direction.
There is also some general information about tools repositories.

Thanks - ISTR that with tools enabled, apt-get upgrade did something I don't want, so I don't have it enabled by default.

[QUOTE=mdengler;657085]
Maybe one of the maemo updates breaks installing screen and/or curses? Also, maybe I did not notice the postinstall error. Were left with a screen executable in your path or anywhere? Does it work?
You might also file a bug against the screen maemo package.

I had done that with some other binaries, but it was nice to find a maemo package for it.

I have a similar problem to asys above: I have used the install file from Obra, but the catalogue shows up as empty in my Application Manager.
I have disabled all other catalogues. When I do an update, the log files shows a whole long list of :
apt-worker: Ignoring version from wrong domain base-files 4
apt-worker: /var/lib/apt/lists/obra.freemoe.org_freemoe-etch_packages
etc
etc
PR1.2 - shouldn't have an impact, right?

wmctrl would be very nice to have in Maemo Extras. It is an integral part of the keyboard focus hack.
EDIT: I just put the wmctrl source files from Jebba's repo into the Extras Assistant and it seemed to build OK. So that means wmctrl should show up in Extras-devel soon now.
