    Hi guys, I was coordinating with the DuckDuckGo guys to make sure everything was ok... and it is

    So without further ado here is the.deb file for the ddg search engine plugin for Harmattan.

    Does anyone still have this file? Could you please host it somewhere else now that the repo is gone?

    edit: I was able to simply edit the Yandex search file since I will never use it, but for some reason when I use a bang for google (!g, !gi) it takes me to a blank screen and I have to refresh to get the results. Just wanted to see if there was anything I should've done differently in the file..

    to set the search engine programmatically:
    /home/user/.local/share/applications/defaults.list

    x-maemo-urischeme/x-web-search=web-search-OLD.desktop => x-maemo-urischeme/x-web-search=web-search-NEW.desktop

    then restart the phone, or initctl restart xsession/mthome

    to recalculate the list of available search engines, after changing/adding desktop files without restarting:
    apt-get install --reinstall grob

    {note that this will replace your grob binary if you normally use the one from android or whatever}

    wolke I have no idea what you just said xD
    Could someone just remake and reupload the .deb for ease of use?

    what i wrote above is technical info about doing things in general to search engines in grob, not a Newbies Guide to Setting Up DuckDuckGo

    here is a crappy attempt at such a guide:

    1) take that thing i pasted above, name it web-search-duckduckgo.desktop, copy it to MyDocs.
    2) download a duckduckgo icon, perhaps here:
    http://blog.toniob.net/public/icon-m...duckduckgo.png
    3) name the icon "icon-m-web-search-duckduckgo.png" and copy it to MyDocs
    4) run:
    Code:
    devel-su
    cp /home/user/MyDocs/web-search-duckduckgo.desktop /usr/share/applications/
    cp /home/user/MyDocs/icon-m-web-search-duckduckgo.png /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/icons/
    apt-get install --reinstall grob
    5) settings -> applications -> web -> search engine -> duckduckgo OR edit /home/user/.local/share/applications/defaults.list and change 'generic' or 'google' to 'duckduckgo'
