From that I assume that there are significant differences that would prevent this build of libzbar from working properly on maemo5?

Can you post the exact error message? Which version of Maemo do you have installed (somewhere under settings, My Phone perhaps?)

Re: mbarcode
 
Detailed message is: "Unable to install 'mbarcode' Application packages missing: libdmtx0a libzbar0 mbarcode-plugins-all () | mbarcode-plugin"

version I am trying to install is 1.0.0-2, and I am using mbarcode_1.0.0-2_armel.deb.

I am using "Maemo 5" (as displayed by "About Product" in config.

I assume I can force dpkg to ignore the compatibility problem, but I don't think it is correct way of installing it and it may not work as expected. Compatibility checks made for reason.

Either reinstalling or clearing .config/mbarcode fixed it. Thanks!

If you use dpkg from the command line to install a local file you have to ensure that all the deps are met yourself. Far easier to use apt-get which will automatically handle downloading and installing the deps for you.

Glad you've got it working anyway.

No, I still cannot get through how to install it on my n900, problem is that in application manager I have "maemo.org" catalogue that points to "http:://repository.maemo.org/extras/", Distribution is set to "fremantle-1.3" and Components to free non-free. And MBarcode is NOT IN A LIST of applications that can be installed. There are many apps available, but MBarcode is not one of them.

It's not in the "maemo.org" (extras) repository yet, only in extras-devel (please note the warnings before enabling this repository). The changelog & version number would suggest that it'll be pushed (via extras-testing) to the main repository before too much longer though.

Re: mbarcode
 
Actaully "apt-get install mbarcode" executed on n900 in command line gives exactly same result "E: Couldn't find package mbarcode"

Re: mbarcode
 
Yes, it works, thanks a lot. I event looked in testing repository, but did not find it there.

Re: mbarcode
 
Is there some way to hook up mbarcode with a Windows PC so that the numerical code could be easily transferred to the clipboard in Windows?

I have tried to find a mention of this topic in the past but never found any, but I'm sure this would not be a very rare usecase for mbarcode.

I was Just searching for this myself. maybe using Petrovich?

or it would be awesome to get a bluetooth Com. Port opened and be able to just mbarcode in and it is pasted into whatever field is active. on the computer. Notepad, Excel, OPEN office?
