As of this moment (2010-05-11) the list of open bugs in https://bugs.maemo.org/buglist.cgi?component=madde are not mentioned here:

* [https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8918 8918]

=== General ===

fakeroot is currently missing in distribution images. It is not needed in [[MADDE]] environment. However if one wants one, the following wrapper script can be made (in environments fakeroot command does not exist):

#!/bin/sh
 exec "$@"

Put this under <code>madbin</code> under what <code>mad query install-dir</code> outputs (with permissions 755). Note: this voids your warranty ;)

Update: 2009-04-27 OSS MADDE available in gitorious (see FAQ) has this command.

=== Windows ===

* When home directory path has whitespaces MADDE environment sets alternate home directory for user. This breaks interaction with non-msys programs in some special cases (almost all 'qmake' invocations are such a cases). To "fix" this one needs to enter <tt>echo >/etc/fstab</tt> in MADDE terminal.

* On some versions of Windows, "Madde Terminal" may not start. A workaround is to remove <tt>-rxvt</tt> from "Madde Terminal" icon properties. <br/>See https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8622

* On some version of Windows, "Madde terminal" takes ages to start. It seems some programs sleep 30 secs doing nothing. (Update: this does not happen to the reporter anymore (too). Maybe related to the windows 7 (64bit) update happened recently).

* <tt>ar p</tt> on windows toolhains does LF -> CRLF conversions, breaking output.

* Some F-Secure products may identify the file xtar.exe suspicious. In this case, mark the file as trusted, and restart the installation process.

* Some Avira products may identify the file utfs-server.exe suspicious.

* MADDE can be only installed on NTFS file system.

=== Linux ===

Madde installer for version 0.6.72 will fail if there is system 'mad' command
(package 'mmv' installs such a command).

Simplest workaround is to remove 'mmv' before installation and then
reinstall it. Next simplest is to move /usr/bin/mad (or whatever it is called)
to different name before MADDE installation.
