hi, i had to flash my n900 after some kernel experiments.
no problem with backup, but abiword is not to find!
it isnt in any repro.
i dont think that is a problem with my sources.
any ideas where y can find a working .deb?
abiword is very important for me!
thanks!


sorry for bad english!

Same problem here. After updating my firmware and recovering my backup, AbiWord has vanished, even though I have extras-devel among my active catalogues! Can anyone help?

jaemo | # 5 | 2010-04-12, 21:08 | Report

i dont know if it is a good idea!
i changed temporarly

Maemo Extras-Devel
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/
fremantle
free non-free

to

Maemo Extras-Devel
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/
diablo
free non-free

and installed abiword

dont forget to correct after install abiword back to fremantle!
i dont know if you bork something- own risk!

Didn't work for me, unfortunately. Some required package was missing, and I didn't get around to installing it manually. Does someone know WHY AbiWord seems to be gone all of a sudden? Is anyone with up-to-date firmware able to detect it in the Fremantle repos?

According to http://maemo.org/packages/view/abiword/ 2.8.1-1 should be in extras-devel. It doesn't show up from apt-cache search though.
