I realised this when I spotted that I couldn't install my own httpd and MySQL apps. I've sorted mine out but several other apps wouldn't re-install either. To fix this if you have a similar problem *** 1. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list (make a backup first!!!) 2. Save the application's install file to disc. 3. In the install file, find the repo URL then find a matching line in the hildon-application-manager.list file. The difference will be that in hildon-application-manager.list the line includes "diablo" but in the install file it will have something different. Change diablo in hildon-application-manager.list to what's in the install file (usually mistral) 4. Save hildon-application-manager.list 5. Refresh sources 6. Install the application. 7. Edit the line in hildon-application-manager.list back to what it was for when the maintainer sets up a diablo repo. *** Three caveats: 1 Binary-compatibility's been OK for what I'm using, it may not be guaranteed. 2. There may be an easier way, but this worked for me. 3.
