RE: extras not working - who should I talk to?
Neils, Thank you! I just tested and was able to find the package and install it using the Application manager with only the "extras" repository enabled. p.s. I am trying to add a comment to the "downloads" page to say that the problem has been fixed but can't. I assume it is because I was the last one to comment on it. Am I right? Would you (or anyone else) mind adding a comment there for me?

RE: extras not working - who should I talk to?
Just a wild guess: isn't it just a matter of having the file on http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle-1.2/non-free/ Instead of (or in addition to): http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle/non-free/ ?? I imagine you are looking for a "long term" solution but would be nice if there was also a "quick and dirty" solution so users don't get "lost" trying to install the app. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Andre, These are the contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list file: deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/apps/ ./ deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/002 ./ deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle1.2/ovi/ ./ deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ fremantle-1.2 free non-free Would you mind posting yours so I can compare? With these contents if I run: apt-get update apt-get install mycontacts This is what I get: Package mycontacts is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package mycontacts has no installation candidate On the application manager I can't see it.

extras not working - who should I talk to?
After many people complained I decided to disable my extras-devel and extras-testing repository and found out that the package is not on extras for some reason (even showing on the web site). As you can see here MyContacts is supposedly available on extras: http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/mycontacts/ But if you try to search on the Application Manager or click on the "install" green arrow it does not work. Many users have complained about it. Thanks in advance, Felipe ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
