I believe I have now fixed the packaging.  New packages for mistral, gregale 
and bora are available in my repositories.  I have tested that the mistral 
and bora packages install correctly from my repository, and I believe they 
should all also work correctly with the libsoup from maemo-hackers.org 
(although I haven't tested it).

If you already have GPE installed, the upgrade procedure is slightly 
complicated as the Application Manager cannot handle the package name 
changes.  See my note to the GPE list 
(http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/gpe-list/2007-May/000364.html).

If you come across any further problems with these GPE packages, please log 
them in the GPE bugzilla (http://bugs.linuxtogo.org/).
