Apparently pwsafe was only available from Diablo Extras-devel, while the
.install file in the maemo.org/downloads site wanted to get it from
Extras.

I've promoted pwsafe from Extras-devel to Extras, it should become
installable soon.

It's not very polished (e.g. double-clicking is *very* finicky and
doesn't follow the Maemo convention of single-tapping an already
selected item to activate it), but at least it's functional.  I've been
using it for months.

So, summary: wait a bit and try again.  Alternatively (if you don't want
to wait), enable the Extras Devel repository, described here:
