[maemo-developers] Sardine status update?

[From: Neil MacLeod]

Hi

For some time now I've not been able to update the an N800 with Sardine - the hildon-application-framework has unmet dependencies, and continuing the upgrade results in an apparently upgraded device (ie. no major or obvious errors) however the device fails to boot - the progress bar gets to about 2/3rds of the way and then the device restarts.

Is anyone able to give an status update on Sardine as the situation above has been the case for several weeks now - I appreciate 100% that Sardine is unstable and bleeding edge, but now it seems permanently unusable! :)

Just in case I'm using the wrong upgrade instructions, I perform the following instructions after cloning the OS to memory card (ext2 partition #2 on external memory card):

# mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /opt/
# chroot /opt/
# echo "#maemo:essential" >sources.list
# echo "deb http://repository.maemo.org/sardine unstable main non-free" >>sources.list
# apt-get update
# apt-get install hildon-application-framework
# apt-get -y --force-yes upgrade

Many thanks!

PS. Having to accept the licence is really annoying! :) Is there any way to automate or bypass acceptance of the licence?
