Contents

New features

  • Qt Mobility API 1.0.2, which is now integrated into the device software.
  • Qt Core libraries updated to 4.7.0 version.

Troubleshooting installation

There are some packages that conflict with updating to PR1.3, causing it to tell you to use the PC Suite to update instead. If you open the update in the Application Manager, and open the Details dialog, you will see the Problems tab. This will tell you the names of any conflicting packages, that can be unistalled in the terminal (X-Term), by using "apt-get remove <package name>". I only needed to remove libqt-test, but you might have to try it again to make sure it updates.

Packages known to conflict

  • libqt4-test
  • libgles1-sgx-img
  • hildon-home-dbg (unconfirmed)
