[maemo-developers] Aegis/Harmattan - how to add permission?

[From: Felipe Crochik]

Surprisingly enough I actually had found the csd-call.conf file and tried
adding the Cellular credential. It didn't work when I first tried and then
I found a document on the harmattan-sdk web site that stated something
like: access to Cellular is restricted to applications where the source is
com.nokia.maemo.

Also, because the error message was somewhat misleading I assumed
"Cellular" hadn't worked. After your email I checked with "accli" my
application on the device and Cellular was not included. This is just
speculation but I think that to update aegis for a package you may need to
first remove the previous package or there is some issue with Qt creator
packaging or deployment when just the aegis file was changed (of course, it
may also have been something I did wrong or didn't do :) )

I deleted the debian folder on my project, rebuilt everything, removed the
package from the device, uploaded a new one and installed it using dpkg and
now it works.

Thanks,
Felipe
