It will, I was just imagining a situation when someone would push to autobuilder a package depending on this lib now and someone would install it before whichever fix to this situation is applied. I've written to maintainers of packages depending on this lib to inform them about this issue, so we should avoid dramas

Man, you're having really hard time with your N900 lately... my guess would be: download older version of deb, unpack, manually copy files to your n900's rootfs (does RescueOS allow that?) and eventually run some post-init scripts (maybe you will need to modify them to use different paths, as I guess RescueOS mounts maemo partitions under different paths).

Maybe too much drama, but I think we have first serious victim of this new serial-killer package.

Edit: J4ZZ, how did this package got installed on your system? Was it pulled as a depenendancy of other package? Do you remember maybe which package was it?

Oh, and sorry for double posts.

I uploaded the fixing package about an hour ago, it should be there, but somehow it gets installed...
I'll contact qgil now, hope he'll remove this problem as soon as possible.

He's not the right guy to contact. try pinging x-fade instead.

is he somehow responsible for the repos (or has direct contact with someone who is)? if so, that's really valuable information for future reference.

Yeah, proud victim of libXau
apt-get upgrade gave it to me, but
I'm quite sure that I reverted back to the old version, before rebooting as if I had a bad feeling about a file that was named meego*.

I sadly could'nt fix it manually, but my 4 week old backup did.

So the IroN900 is up and running again...

Like once a wise man said: "Never run a touchy system!"

wouldn't it be easier to just run:
Code:
apt-get install libxau6=1:1.0.3-2osso1.1
for downgrading?

Regards,

Nope, this isn't in extras-* afaik
I asked xfade to remove the bad pkg about 1p.m., let's hope this'll be fixed soon.
