How To Install Mo/pi
« on: December 18, 2004, 03:24:23 pm »
Hi all. I'm interested in trying out Pi-Sync's mail app,  
OM/PI but I can't seem to find the link to download the package. The download link points to the PIM package. Can somebody help me out please? thks

Download the zip file of the whole app suite:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/kdepimp...pk.zip?download

This is to save you from yourself.  If you only installed Om/Pi it wouldn't work.  You also need libraries, which are included in the zip file.

Enjoy!

So I d/l'd the zip file, I installed the kmicrokdelibs_1.9.15_arm.ipk ok,  but when I try to install any others, I get:
Code: [Select]
root@poodle:/mnt/card/Install_Files/pi-sync# ipkg install kaddressbook_1.9.15_arm.ipk
Installing kaddressbook (1.9.15) to root...
ERROR: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for kaddressbook:
         libmicrokde
An error ocurred, return value: 1.
But I already have kmicrokdelibs installed & something else it seems:
Code: [Select]
root@poodle:/mnt/card/Install_Files/pi-sync# ipkg list | grep micro
kmicrokdelibs - 1.9.15 -
libmicrokdelibs - 1.9.13-r0 -
?? I don't remember installing libmicrokdelibs before. So I tried to remove libmicrokdelibs, but:
Code: [Select]
root@poodle:/mnt/card/Install_Files/pi-sync# ipkg remove libmicrokdelibs
No packages removed.
So now I'm stuck & in need of saving anyway ;^<

I'd use -force-depends to get past this one.

If you feel brave you can edit the control files in the various packages so that the names match up correctly (it looks like the libs have a different name from that which the kaddressbook control file specifies as a dependency).

I tried -force-depends but that didn't work. What control files are you suggesting I go after, the old or the new? And where would I find them? thks

The control file is inside the control.tar.gz file within the ipk.

Either change the dependency (in kaddressbook's one) to match the correct lib name, or  change the lib name to match the dependency.

I'm not sure why -force-depends wouln't work though...?

How's about I try it again before I go any further. I finally figured out how to add feeds to my Z instead of d/l'ding the package files & installing locally, so I might have (probably!) done something wrong. I'm getting there, slowly but surely :?>

thanks again.
