Hi, I tried the red pill mode and noticed that a new version of
gst-plugins-farsight was available. I installed it, and now everything
works perfect again!

Thanks very much for updating the broken package :)

For the record I was hit too and hopefully found help on #maemo
so I could get out of the reboot cycles.

I did not realize that the application manager wasn't doing the same
things as apt-get upgrade until too late.

When the mistral repositories are fixed, what's the best course,
apt-get upgrade again? (I do it through ssh from my regular PC.)

Thanks in advance,

Laurent
