You could have a look at this link

(a bit too much for me I have to add...) to try to fix it yourself??

Thanks.

Wow! Looks a bit complicated.

Hello,

Barriosquare is my fav app, it was working well until I installed SW v. 10.2010.16-8..

Now it does not even connect and keeps showing the "foursquare.com Gateway Error" message...
any idea what this could be?

thanks

I had some problems with BarrioSquare so I uninstalled it then had the dependency problems reinstalling it. I overcame these by manually updating my libqt packages from here (look at the last post with the link to the repo files)
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/list...velopers/61018
and I have now reloaded it ok. However, when I try to log in again I get the same "foursquare.com Gateway error", though I can link into my twitter account ok from the app.

I did have my old BarrioSquare connection active on my FS account, and I have removed this, but it still makes no difference. I am on v 4.6.2 of libqt, that's the correct one to be on, yes?

Thanks for you solution, could you please tell me wich ones you installed cause I tried to install those that where missing
(what my App manager told me that where missing)
but whatever I try I'll keep getting the error 'not compatible'....

Would love to reinstall Barriosquare too but can't figure out what libqt4 armel deb's I have to download and install to get it up and running...

http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...ree/q/qt4-x11/

I've got the debs from this list and the ones I downloaded and tried to install are:

libqt4-xml_4.5.3~git20090723-0maemo4+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-webkit_4.6.2~git20090723-0maemo1+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-phonon_4.5.3~git20090723-0maemo4+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-network_4.6.2~git200907230-0maemo1+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-sql-dbg_4.6.2~git20100310-0maemo1+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-gui_4.6.2~git20100310-0maemo1+0m5_armel.deb
libqt4-core_4.6.2~git20100310-0maemo1+0m5_armel.deb

Hope that anybody can help me or point me in the right direction.

I think I found the solution to the "Gateway Error", the authorization URL has changed, see here

My head's starting to hurt. Is this correct?

1) This app cannot be installed on fremantle by only enabling the extras-devel repository?
2) The scratchbox component of the fremantle SDK that is available from Nokia has incompatible QT libraries with the version of the same OS on the phone?
3) The PR 1.2 firmware that was referenced is only available through an unauthorized "leak" that left Nokia?

I'm asking these questions because I purchased a N900 last week cause I use Debian as my primary OS for my computers. It's rad to have Debian on my phone. But I'm having trouble understanding the Maemo development process. This app was the first step in that confusion.

Never mind, I just noticed Julio put up a source package too! I'm familiar with the Debian development process so I'll pick up some work on this app, as my first Maemo app was going to be a 4sq one

I had all the problems listed above, and solved them.
From trial and error it seems that when the extras-devel repository is activated, the App Manager won't resolve dependencies on its own. Solution for barriosquare :
1) Deactivate devels.
2) Download "QtPy Full installation" in the App manager.
3) Activate devels.
4) Download Barriosquare.
5) go to xTerminal
6) type vi /opt/barriosquare/barrioConfig.py
7) skim the file until you find AUTHORIZATION_EXCHANGE_URL = 'http://api.playfoursquare.com/v1/authexchange'
8) go to insert mode (type "i")
9) change to
AUTHORIZATION_EXCHANGE_URL = 'http://api.foursquare.com/v1/authexchange'
10) go out of insert mode (press "ESC" on the touchscreen of your N900)
11) save and quit (type ":wq", then enter.)
12) make sure you have a profile pic on foursquare, otherwise the loading screen will freeze
13) launch barriosquare
14) enjoy.

Great tip! Thanks a lot.

To others who will be trying this procedure, you'll also need to install 'rootsh' to have permission to modify the .py file.
