Hi Telnet,
Could you tell whether Qt is updated to 4.6?

I wouldn't recommend upgrading with apt-get. I did it (very early) when PR1.1 came out. It didn't get all packages. One package in particular was missing. I can't recall the name of it, but it was some sort of meta package that pulled in a load of extra stuff in. I only found about it after being quite puzzled by the fact, that despite the upgrade my version number didn't change. After installing the meta package (and all it's dependencies) everything was fine and my version number was correct.

I'll see if I can figure out the name of that meta package...

EDIT: Found it. It's called "mp-fremantle-generic-pr".

I just ran "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" and there was nothing interesting to update.

Apt-get upgrade with extras-devel enabled is a one-way ticket to brickland. Why don't you patiently wait for the official release?

They couldn't have chosen a better date for a grand update than april 1st, haha. You know what would be even more hilarious? If you get the update prompt, start installing and in the end your N900 resets and you get an "APRIL FOOLS!" message as your boot video.

April 1st is not a global day, so this is not important.
