Developer Mode Alternative? - Page 3 - maemo.org

ejcrashed | # 21 | 2015-04-27, 13:43 | Report

Hi gaunab.

If you have the Terminal already installed then cd to /etc/apt/sources.list.d, then do an ls, inside there should be a file named n9repomirror.list.

I just checked up on coderus backup repos and it all seems to be online.

If the file n9repomirror.list exists then I think maybe step 2 didn't finish correctly, try running this step again a couple of times.

Also, i think it's better to enable Developer Mode from Configuration -> Security -> Developer Mode

Yes, it's there.
aegis-ssu-keyring-001.list is still there, too.

This doesn't change anything.

Thats what I did before, but since it only says "Can't complete the download" I wanted to see where it tries to download from. And that is still downloads.maemo.nokia.com

If I run

Code:

pkgmgr refresh-cache

in terminal it says: Error: Some parts of the cache could not be refreshed. Maybe this is my problem. Don't know how to fix,

Comment out all entries inside
aegis-ssu-keyring-001.list
and do a 'apt-get update'.

Seems like those older repos have higher priority...

How could I do this without being root? I do need developer-mode to install devel-su.

Huh, well, I see that I should add something like this into my package

Code:

echo "old-repositories" > /dev/null

Certainly this code is stupid joke...

I will update N9RepoMirror-package soon, stay tuned.

The error from pkgmgr refresh-cache is expected, after all there are repositories that can't be refreshed.

The weird thing is that pkgmgr should take the packages from whichever repo has them available, it shouldn't matter if nokia's repos are down.

Just a question, are you running on open mode kernel or normal kernel, when i did it my N9 was on open mode.

Mine is on Open Mode, too.
Possibly another 'aegis' bite?

So best would be ancelad updates that file in ...
uh wait we could create MALF with stock kernel. First check if it is watched by Aegis.

--edit
Should be okay as there is no reference to /etc/apt/sourceslist.d/* inside /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist.
So possibly a simple gzip in preinst and gunzip in postinst?

I'm using normal mode. Maybe I should switch to open mode.

Hy all,
tried to install openrepo.deb, but couldn't install. Even after full reset I still had the problem.
As I have a speaker problem with my N9 I wanted to switch to another one .
Is there another possiblity of a full backup and restore?
