Had this one as well. Follow this process

cd /var/lib/dpkg/info
edit the file simplenotewidget.postrm
comment out the line set -e (ie put a hash in front of it)
save the file
remove as normal.

Looks like there's a new version in Extras-testing (0.3), does it still look similar to the screenshot on the first post?

v. extras-testing

A fanatstic and needed addition to my desktop. All personalizations work well. Couple of things (already mentioned?)

1. The widget does not survive a reboot, though it remembers where to go when relaunched, and the note text is still there.

2. It's not really a widget; wish it were.

3. Needs a 3rd edit button? Clear note

Nice work!

do this to make it appear even after a reboot.
NOTE:This is not the solution but merely a workaround. I do it for QT widgets, works ok for me.

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to work for me with simplenote. I did:

Code:
sudo gainroot
leafpad /etc/event.d/simplenotestart
contents:
Code:
start on started hildon-desktop
script 
        /usr/bin/simplenotewidget
end script
Saved and rebooted. The widget doesn't appear on the desktop after bootup. (?)

Berjan, can you maybe run simplenotewidget as part of a script where you start your app in the background in your next update so this workaround can work.

Grant for now , if you want this to work, create a file
/usr/bin/run_simplenotewidget

and its contents as

run-standalone.sh /usr/bin/simplenotewidget &

then in your file(simplenotestart) in the event.d directory replace
/usr/bin/simplenotewidget
by
/usr/bin/run_simplenotewidget

and it should be good for now till berjan releases his change.

Finally berjan, it will be nice if the app is optified, not many would like to have it in /usr/bin/ however small it is
