+
-
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maemo-select-menu-location is obsolete.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 [http://talk.maemo.org 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.
