I finally managed to get a big enough hammer to drive the upgrade through. It turns out that the older farsight libraries don't get automatically removed when you attempt to install the newer libraries.
What I did was to drop to a root shell, then try apt-get install osso-rtcom-beta Note the missing libraries apt-get indicates (which are different than what the application manager says), then directly download them from the rtcom-beta repository. Then attempt to install each library via dpkg. For each library, dpkg will complain about attempting to overwrite a file owned by another package (the older version of the package). dpkg -r the offending package, then install the new package. Then once again try the apt-get install osso-rtcom-beta, and iterate until it succeeds. I'd suggest the next time the new libraries are built, it might be wise to have the .deb indicate that they obsolete all previous versions of the library. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
