This page is intended to consolidate the common errors that occur while trying to port Diablo applications to Fremantle. Feel free to improve this page and/or add additional information.

maemo-select-menu-location: command not found
Typical error message
scratchbox/tools/bin/sh: line 1: /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure: No such file or directory Setting up leafpad (0.8.16le-0maemo2) ... gtk-update-icon-cache: Cache file created successfully. /var/lib/dpkg/info/leafpad.postinst: line 7: maemo-select-menu-location: command not found dpkg: error processing leafpad (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Reason
maemo-select-menu-location is obsolete. In Fremantle, there is no submenu like, "Utility", "Extra", "Settings" etc. All installed 3rd party software will be visible under "Applications" by default.
Action Remove the instance from the post installation script. It is not needed.
Missing dependency: maemo-installer-utils
Reason
The package hildon-application-manager no longer "provides" maemo-installer-utils. The commands maemo-confirm-text, maemo-application-running, maemo-list-user-packages are still available.
Action
Replace the dependency with hildon-application-manager.
Missing dependency: libhildonhelp0
Reason
libhildonhelp is dropped.
Action
Remove the dependency and calls to the help APIs.
What can I do if my question is not mentioned here?
- Look if it is discussed already in one of the mailing lists or in talk.maemo.org
- If not post your question in the developer mailing list or in talk
- If you find the answer and you think it could be interesting for others as well post it here, so that we just have to point on this page in the future if the question pops up again.
