If it's in the application manager, you can install it from there. My
problem is that what I want to install isn't in the catalog for
OS2008, but it is hosted in the maemo repository - and *only* in the
repository. There are no addresses anywhere except for that maemo
repository, which I haven't been successful in browsing. There has to
be some generic Linux way of grabbing the file, given the info in the
.install file, but I haven't been able to find it yet.
