Title: Can't start datebook, addressbook...
Post by: oxstone on September 28, 2004, 03:34:22 pm
Yesterday, my 3.5.1 OZ (opie image) worked fine. I removed libsqlite0 in order to gain a few kbytes on the / filesystem.
This morning, I had a bad surprise: it's now impossible to start some programs, such as: datebook, addressbook, today, todolist.
What's wrong? The error message is quite simple:
"Could not locate application <whatever>"

Should I reinstall libsqlite0? If removing it breaks other packages, I assume a message should have appeared?
That's quite annoying: I mainly use my Zaurus as a PDA, and I need those programs!

Sounds like it might be the cause.

Try running the apps in question from the command line and see whether the lib is causing the problem.

Removing the libsqlite0 package was the origin of the problem. I just reinstalled that package and now all applications work fine. There's really a problem with the package manager I use (opie-aqpkg) or the package dependency description. I should have be warned about the possible problems removing that package could generate...

Suggest it either on the mailing list, or on irc. Or put in a patch yourself if you fancy it.

I agree that a warning would be a good thing.
