And on top of that it is something "similar" like a wallpaper manager and not something like a virtual machine.

Great job to the developer and I hope to see alot more applications in the future but the charging thing (donations as he calls it) are just not right. Obviously your mythology is better suited for Apple and/or Microsoft.
Maybe expecting FREE application and freebies is wrong also ?

Lets not generalise in such manner. For any healthy software ecosystem there has to be both free and paid apps coexisting. Ideological divides do not create a successful environment.


As much as I enjoy the free apps and do thanks its developers, I also am willing to pay for apps where developers deem to get paid for their work.

ok so how to install this AFTER the pr1.2 update that erased my apps?
I tried all the commands I saw in the previous page, it keeps coming up with the error msg: "dpkg: status database area is locked by another process."
i already had it installed with the link provided after the paypl
purchase and was working fine before the update.

oh... and i totally agree... the author did stop updating his collection after we bought his app...the bastard...lol

just purchased this application and cant get it to work on PR 1.2. it tells me not-installable in the application manager,and when i check the problems tab i can see that it needs a couple of python dependencies.So i try to download those dependencies from apt-get but they dont seem to install properly on PR1.2. I get a lot of errors. I tried downloading the python package from application manager too but it also fails during installation. I dont think that Prismic WM is compatible yet with 1.2. I hope we get a fix soon because I just bought this thing.

please if anyone has managed to get it working on PR 1.2 let us know thnx!
