True, but it's been failing on every occasion I've tried to upgrade in the past
two weeks now (maybe 7 or 8 seperate days during that period?)

It's regular old openssh. I've been having this same problem with regular
openssh installed on 3.2007 and also openssh on a fresh install of 4.2007. The
only apps I have installed on 4.2007 are xterm, openssh, Skype and Pidgin.

Prior to the upgrade, my /var/run on the SD card is as follows:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jul 16 14:35 /var/run ->
/tmp/.run
This is my sources.list:
deb http://repository.maemo.org sardine main non-free
and these are the commands I'm executing - it's the upgrade that is failing,
the hildon install goes without a hitch:
apt-get update
apt-get install hildon-application-framework
apt-get -y --force-yes upgrade
Are these repositories/commands still correct? The Wiki[1] seems to have a
mistake in step 1.5 of the device upgrade where it recommends that sources.list
should contain
deb unstable main non-free
which doesn't look right!
I've just run a full upgrade against 4.2007 + xterm/openssh/Skype/Pidgin, all
the way through from ext2 format, gnu tar until apt-get upgrade and again I get
an error which relates to dbus - here's an extract of the output:
