Hrmmhrmmhrrrrmmmm. Yeah.... But it is quite hard to unbreak packages with only the Application manager, and if we do it right, there shouldn't be any harm coming from unrelated, unconfigured or otherwise broken packages. Sometimes I am thinking that maybe dpkg should ignore most exit codes of maintainer scripts, and the scripts would need to explicitly exit with 112 to let the installation fail or something... most maintainer script failures in maemo are bogus. _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
