Re: help with missing package

Which app, what repositories do you have enabled, and what packages are reported as missing?

If you have extras-devel enabled, then some of the packages/libraries require PR1.2, so will give errors about missing packages.

Re: help with missing package

advancedcachin : name of app

There shouldn't be any problem with that app - all those python packages are available in extras (and there's no newer versions in extras-devel), so all should install okay. You can try installing them manually - make sure you have rootsh installed, then launch X Terminal and run:

Code:

root

apt-get install python-notify python-numeric python-cairo

apt-get clean

Re: help with missing package

Ah - one of those must have a PR1.2 dependent version in extras-devel. Try disabling extras-devel temporarily, closing App Manager and rerunning the apt-get command in X Terminal. That should then succeed in installing the packages, after which you can re-enable extras-devel and install advancedcaching through App Manager.

Re: help with missing package

i did.but the same problem in the terminal with some other dependency .is there any way to remove old packages and install packages that i need now?

this is the response of terminal:

Code:

apt-get install python-notify python-numeric python-cairo

enter

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:

qstardic : depend: libc6 (>=2.7-1) but 2.5.1-leglibc20+0m5 is to be installed

                depends: libgcc1 (>=1:4.3) but 1:4.2.1-4maemo9+0m5 is to be installed

                 depends: libqtqore4 (>=4.4.0) but it is not instable

                depends : libstdc++6 (>= 4.3) but 4.2.1-4maemo9+0m5 is to be installed

will these packages take space on root?

Re: help with missing package

If you wonder whether some package takes up space on root, rather than asking, try the following:

Find out how much rootfs you have.
Install the package.
Find out how much rootfs you have.

Subtract the second number from the first.
That will tell you exactly how much rootfs installing the package cost.

use this repo but just for the packages u need after that, delete the repo, it can brick your device

name Maemo Sdk
link http://repository.maemo.org
distribution fremantle/sdk
components free non-free

then execute again

apt-get update
apt-get install python-notify python-numeric python-cairo
enter

after thet, run apt-get -f install and close the shell... delete the repo after downloaded the missing packages!!!

                depends : libstdc++6 (>= 4.3) but 4.2.1-4maemo9+0m5 is to be installed

Those errors don't look to be in any way related to the install of the python packages. It looks like you've forced the install of an updated version of qstardic and it's now complaining that it doesn't have the necessary dependencies. You'll need to run "apt-get -f install", which will probably remove the incompatible qstardic application.

It you've got pymaemo-optify installed (which I think is standard with PR1.1.1) then all python packages will be optified automatically.
