At first I thought it was a memory card corruption issue, so I fixed that. Turns out it was not, so don't send a million replies about that!
When I try to install apps, I get this constant error in the log:
dpkg-deb (subprocess): failed to exec tar: No such file or directory
so it appears that Tar is missing. I presume it is there on a standard install, and I've inadvertently uninstalled while trying to make space on my n810. It doesn't show up for installation in the app-manager, so I tried apt-get install tar, and it threatened to uninstall some 76 applications in the process. I said no...
I presume if I download Tar from the repository I can maybe slip it into usr/bin and things might work, but I'm wondering if someone has a better solution.
